Community Child Health Job Descriptions

Advice on Community Child Health Job Descriptions

For posts in CCH, RCPCH Regional Leads are expected to obtain advice from the relevant BACCH Regional Coordinator, rather than the CSAC Chair. However, the final recommendation is the responsibility of the RCPCH Regional Advisor. (Any direct approach to a BACCH Regional Coordinator is informal.) The CSAC Chair is happy to assist where difficulties arise.
