Exploring health visitors' role in partnering with parents to reduce alcohol-related developmental disorders in England: a mixed-methods study

Abstract

Extract: Health Visitors' Role in Discussing Alcohol

Addressing alcohol consumption from the antenatal period through the first 5 years aligns with Making Every Contact Count.
This rarely happens due to organisational and individual-level barriers such as limited training on alcohol screening and knowledge of best practice in response to level of risk-drinking.
There is a gap in knowledge has informed this study by exploring how HVs can be agents of change alongside parents in reducing the prevalence/mitigating the risk of alcohol-related developmental disorders in England.
