To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many health visitors were employed in (a) Liverpool and (b) England in each year since 2010.

Mr Philip Dunne

NHS Digital provides information on the number of nursing, midwifery and health visiting staff employed in the National Health Service in England.

The following table shows the number of full time equivalent health visitors directly employed in NHS organisations in Liverpool and England between May 2010 and May 2016.

The table does not include data for health visitors employed by organisations such as local authorities that do not use the Electronic Staff Record but do provide NHS-funded services.
