Community
Placed-based approaches delivered in the local community by a range of frontline workers, providers and commissioners. Local services work together with families to improve children and young people’s outcomes and reduce inequalities.
Universal
Services which are offered to everyone, ensuring that they receive screening tests, immunisations, and advice, support and referral to targeted or specialist services. Universal services aim to prevent future problems by identifying those at higher risk and putting in place early support at a targeted or specialist level according to need.
Targeted
Targeted services provide timely and personalised expert advice and support when children, young people and families need it for specific issues. This might include mental health, long-term condition management and breastfeeding. Providers will often work with other agencies to coordinate holistic, wrap-around support for people who need more targeted support.
Specialist
Specialist services provide specialist practitioner treatment. Providers will often work with other agencies to coordinate holistic, wrap-around support for people with acute or ongoing needs, including complex needs management.
