<p /> <p /> <p>We have not made any central assessment of this role. We are aware
of the valuable work which Well Child does, and we were able to support Well Child
with a grant in 2010-11 from the £19 million we made available for funding local schemes
to support children's palliative care services.</p><p> </p><p>We understand that Well
Child funds each nurse for a period of three years after which time the individual
National Health Service health provider commits to continue the post. Each nurse is
employed and managed by the local healthcare trust in which they work and therefore
it would seem that the providers would be best placed to comment on the impact they
have made.</p>
