title: Group child health assessments.
abstract: 'Health for all children' emphasises health promotion and parental involvement in child health surveillance checks. Heavy caseloads and the need to incorporate these principles in their practice prompted an Oxfordshire team of health visitors to introduce group health assessments. Here they describe the new approach and the response from parents.
