Abstract

The Personal Child Health Record (PCHR or ‘Red Book’) is used for recording a child's health and development from ages 0–5 and is unique as a citizen-owned record that follows a child through health, care and education. It engages parents in the health of their children and flows data between services and organisations in different locations. The digital version of the PCHR, the ‘eRedbook’, will be field tested at NHS Trusts in the London region in 2016. This article will discuss the background, features and benefits of the digital version and provide an insight into the plans for London.
