The Hungarian health visitor network, established in 1915, is a unique system in Europe. Health visitors are highly qualified healthcare professionals whose traditional role is to promote and improve the physical, mental, and social well-being of families. They are specialised in women’s health, pregnancy, mother, infant and child care, as well as the health protection of adolescents. Consequently, their function covers all stages of womens’ lives.
