The Family Nurse Partnership (FNP) is a national evidence-based programme. The aim of the programme is to improve the antenatal health, child health and development and parent’s economic self-sufficiency in disadvantaged young families. FNP is part of a wider Young Parent Pathway, and mentorship, training and supervision of others is an integral part of the Family Nurse role.
The role is responsible for delivering the FNP intensive, preventive home visiting programme to vulnerable, hard to reach young women who are expecting their first baby. The post holder will be required to develop high-level generalist and specialist skills to work within the clinical methods of the structured programme.
