Abstract
This study investigated the early implementation of the Financial Inclusion Pathway within the NHS Grampian area, and how it relates to clinical practice and the experience of care. The perspectives and experiences of low-income parents and their engagement with early years health professionals about financial challenges and income maximisation were explored. As were the observations and experiences of community-based health care professionals’ in addressing income poverty during their routine practice in relation to pregnant women and parents/carers of children under 5 years. Parent interview topics included views and experiences of conversations of financial issues during routine health care and any perspectives of benefits and possible consequences of the FIP concept. Health care professionals were also asked on their experiences on raising financial issues during routine care and their roles in relation to discussing financial challenges with clients.
