NHS Wales Health Assessment Framework for Looked After Children

The NHS Wales Health Assessment Framework for Looked After Children provides standards of good practice for Health Boards working with children who are currently Looked After by the local authority.

The framework has been professionally developed by the NST in collaboration with all Health Boards across Wales. It aims to support a consistent approach to the Health Assessment process and the quality of the health assessment and report for each looked after child or young person. The framework also supports the development of a toolkit to enable qualitative audits of the health assessment process for all Health Boards across NHS Wales.
