School Nurse

School nurses are part of Bedfordshire Community Health Services’ 0-19 team. Teams are made up of specialist nurses, staff nurses and support health professionals. School Nurse link

When your child starts school they take over their care from your health visitor. They support your child with their physical and emotional needs from when they start school until they leave. School nurses are mobile health professionals, based in community settings like health centres who can support children and families at all maintained schools across Bedfordshire.

Please call the Health HUB on 0300 555 0606. Calls will be answered Monday to Friday, between 9am and 5pm (excluding Bank Holidays). 

The administrator will ask for your child’s name, date of birth and the school they attend so they can identify the school nurse team in your area, who will return your call within 2 working days.
