Had a random message from someone from the Health Visiting team asking for a telephone appointment. I called and said I was a bit confused as the last HV during the 2 year assessment said that children are seen next via school so they won't be involved unless we need help. It's been a year and we have no issues to go back to them with so this has confused me.
The person I spoke to said they have some sort of special list that my DC3 is on but didn't have notes. She queried if DC has any illnesses which DC does so she said it might be that, not to worry about it and it could even just be a quick check in. There was something about the way she said she didn't have notes that has concerned me.
I'm worried about what this is really about and have read about "early intervention". I've got to wait a month to find out what this is for. Even if we have been reported, I can't think of any circumstances where something would have warranted concern besides one of my neighbours who is nosey and is constantly out whenever anyone is in their garden. We tend to stay away from most of our neighbours as they get very dysfunctional, antisocial and also want to know everything about anything. About a month ago, this neighbour asked me for a stick from my garden that DC had been playing with (pretending it was a broom, wand, etc.). I didn't think much of it until they said the sticks were dangerous for kids and could poke their eyes out and they were anxious about it.
Does anyone have any experience of being referred back to a HV?
