MAKING A DIFFERENCE: Integrated Ongoing Neurological Support in the Community - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Nearly three million people in the UK have a neurological condition; Stroke, Traumatic Brain Injury, Parkinson's disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Brain Tumour, Motor Neurone disease, and many more, all affecting the person for the rest of their life.

The NHS provides treatment at the onset of a condition but after that there is a huge need for ongoing support. Research shows that those who are supported and know more about their condition are less likely to have to call on further in-hospital and GP care and there is enormous scope for improving the quality of life for those with neurological conditions. The right support, therapeutic and social, makes all the difference.

The book shows how those with neurological conditions benefit from integrated ongoing support provided in the local community and self-help, and how lives can be improved. It explains good practice and encouraging methods in the support and treatment of those with life changing conditions.

All the proceeds from the sales of this book are donated to the medical charity Integrated Neurological Services (INS).
