TWICE weekly online health support and advice for parents, carers and professionals are now available to support children who are aged between five and 19 years old.

As part of the health initiative, members of the public will be able to talk to an e-school nurse over a live video link.

The link is a private, secure, confidential and convenient way to make contact with the school nurse.

On the video consultation the nurse will assess the child or young person's health problem and provide parents, carers and professionals with the support and advice that is needed.

You can telephone for an appointment between 9am-5pm, Monday to Friday by dialling: 0300 30 34 365.

Appointments are available on Monday afternoons, as well as all day on Tuesday's and Thursday's.
