Evaluation of the delivery of the family nurse partnership programme in Scotland during the COVID-19 pandemic
Despite the challenges of delivering the programme remotely during COVID-19, telehealth has the potential to play a valuable role in post COVID-19 FNP programme delivery. A hybrid delivery approach could be appropriate in certain instances, for example clients not deemed to have complex vulnerabilities or those living in remote locations. Future studies could robustly examine the impact of the quality of modes of FNP delivery, for instance home visiting, telehealth and hybrid delivery and how these influence outcomes across different client groups. An economic evaluation of the value for money of different modes of delivery could also be insightful for decision makers.
