The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the average caseload per health visitor is (a) in the Devon Integrated Care Board area and (b) across all Integrated Care Board areas.

Answered by Mrs Sharon Hodgson

The information requested is not currently available. We expect to be able to publish this data in Autumn 2026. This will be a new publication in response to the Government’s commitment to strengthening Health Visiting and will report on the zero to 19 year old public health nursing workforce size and activities.
