Treated differently from one Trust to another

I am a student nurse and i have been out with health visitors in the Northern Trust, I myself am treated within the Southern Trust.

I have a toddler that hasn't been seen much by the health visitor and they have rarely been in my home, I always have to go to their base for my child to be seen. But in the Northern Trust they all do home calls and they are done in the right time frame.

I'm wondering why is this so different in my Trust as I feel I would benefit better from the Northern Trust.

Dear geminiqc99

I am very sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with the health visiting service that you received in the Southern Trust. I would be very keen to speak with you to hear what your experience has been and to see if there is anything that we can do to support you and your toddler. Please call 028 37566975 and we can arrange time to chat.
