Health care is important for all children and young people, and for their parents or carers. But children frequently enter the care system with a worse level of health than others, in part due to the impact of early abuse or neglect. Foster carers have a vital role to play in supporting the health of the children in their care. But how best can they do this? This handbook will support foster carers to navigate through the health service, to ensure that children’s needs are met, and to be a role model for their health choices.
