Like District Nurse this can be expanded or even merged with DN, to create a "Community Nurses" article? Panthro 01:36, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Certainly needs expanding. As to whether merge with DN, depends on total length of information on Community Nursing and how systems vary worldwide. I suspect that worldwide discussion of community nursing will be sufficiently large as to be the overall covering article, with HV & DN then being smaller articles (I have a hunch these are UK specific roles/terms, but I may be wrong). As UK GP I have narrow perspective on UK situation, let alone worldwide. David Ruben Talk 03:40, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Health Department Nurse

This sounds like what would be a county health department nurse here in the states. I don't know if there is an article similar to this or not. Will have to check. Looks good though. Maltmomma (chat) 20:46, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Still not clear why they're called health visitors - do they typically visit people at home? 86.134.136.87 (talk) 09:28, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
