Public Health Wales
Hospitals and Health Care
We work to protect and improve health and well-being and reduce health inequalities for the people of Wales
About us
Public Health Wales’s ambition is to achieve a “healthier, happier and fairer Wales”. Our purpose is to protect and improve health and wellbeing, and to reduce health inequalities for the people of Wales. We share this purpose with our stakeholders and partners, and can only achieve our vision by working together. We are a unique national NHS organisation delivering public health services in Wales and working closely with communities, the wider NHS, local authorities and other agencies including housing, police and fire and rescue services, Welsh Government and the population of Wales. In our approach, we lead the public health system to define effective services and prioritised actions; we mobilise others to develop community solutions to health problems; and we deliver services directly, where there are distinct advantages to doing so. We employ around 1,700 staff, including 85 at consultant level, and operate a budget of approximately £108million. We are passionate and driven to succeed. Our focus is to support the shift to a system-based approach centred around prevention and helping people to stay healthier for longer. We therefore need to make a positive difference to the quality of people’s lives for current and future generations, and reduce the health inequalities that exist in parts of Wales. We provide public health knowledge, scientific expertise and intelligence to lead change, as well as the intellectual challenge to ensure public services focus on delivering health improvement and reducing inequality. We run screening, health and healthcare improvement programmes, and provide microbiology and other health protection services.

#NEWYDDION Bydd angen i tua 2,000 yn llai o fenywod yng Nghymru gael pigiad gwrth-D yn ystod eu beichiogrwydd, diolch i raglen brofi DNA di-gell y ffetws newydd sy'n cael ei lansio heddiw. Hyd yn hyn, mae pob menyw â grŵp gwaed RhD negatif (a elwid gynt yn Rhesws negatif) wedi cael cynnig pigiad gwrth-D i atal Clefyd Haemolytig y Ffetws a’r Babi Newydd-anedig (HDFN) – a elwir hefyd yn glefyd Rhesws. Bydd cyflwyno prawf gwaed syml i'r llwybr sgrinio yn cael ei gynnig i'r holl fenywod RhD negatif nad oes ganddynt wrthgyrff yn eu gwaed. Gellir cynnig hyn ar tua 16eg wythnos o feichiogrwydd, a gall ragweld yn gywir y math o waed sydd gan y babi. Mae hyn yn golygu y gellir targedu'r pigiad gwrth-D yn gywir at y menywod hynny sydd ei angen. Darganfyddwch fwy ⬇️: https://lnkd.in/e_6S5CAa

#NEWS Around 2,000 fewer women in Wales will need to have an anti-D injection during their pregnancy, thanks to a new cell-free fetal DNA testing programme being launched today. Until now, all pregnant women with a RhD negative blood group (previously called Rhesus negative) have been offered the anti-D injection to prevent Haemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn (HDFN) – also known as Rhesus disease. The introduction of a simple blood test to the screening pathway will be offered to all RhD negative women who do not have maternal antibodies. This can be offered at around the 16th week of pregnancy, and can accurately predict the blood type of the baby. This means that the anti-D injection can be accurately targeted at those women who need it. Find out more ⬇️: https://lnkd.in/e4gGKkFy
