Work Priorities 2013-15
The Neurology areas of work are based on feedback from a Stakeholder event held in September 2013,
National Clinical Director advice and from early scoping arising from various NHSE publications on Mental Health, Dementia and Acute and Chronic Neurological Conditions.
The suggested criteria upon which the priorities are delivered focus on:
1. Improve access to early diagnostics for people with suspected neurological problems
2. Improve access to neuro-rehabilitation
3. improve neurology commissioning intentions
4. Improve the outcomes for people with Neuromuscualr Diseases
5. Improve access to Neurology related data
6. Support links with brain & CNS
7. Ensure patient and carers views are represented in all Neurology Improvement work
8. SCN/regional approach to implementing NICE DMT guidance
9. Links to academic/research bodies E.G Divbision 4
10. Links to voluntary organisations
11. Data Intelligence
12. Communications
