HI

you will probably be asked what you know about the healthvisiting role and what you understand about multi skill mix teams and what you could contribute towards such a team. You will also need to know a little about child protection issues. They will probably give you a scenario to talk through as well and they may ask you about different ages and stages of development.

Hope this helps, i have been a cnn for 16 months now and i am loving it, i run my own diary organise and deliver group sessions and have developed my own client list as well as running baby clinics, baby massage and carrying out developmental checks. Good luck for the interview and let me know how it goes.

the senario i got was- you are at a clinic and a mother has come to see the health visitor. she has a toddler that is running round the room throwing things and a baby on her lap that is crying. you see the mother smack the baby. what would you do?

 

my advise for the interview is just sell yourself and keep mentioning good communication and meeting the individual needs of the child.good luck!!!xx

thanks very much i am really worried about it. the child protection issues.do i just say how you go about it and how they work with the family etc,but i would always say the i would say to the health vister before calling social.and the stage of the childs development do they just say what a child should be doing at that age and then i answer. was your interview with a panel.
