Clinics For People With Neuromuscular Conditions

EDM number 782 in 2007-08, proposed by Mark Williams on 24/01/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Diseases and Health services.

That this House is concerned that across England and Wales there are significant geographical inequalities in access to health services for patients with neuromuscular conditions; notes with concern that many areas of Wales have no clinics for managing conditions such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Becker Muscular Dystrophy and Myasthenia Gravis; further notes that patients need access to specialist diagnosis, treatment and ongoing care as both children and adults, and that outcomes are improved by care from a specialist multi-disciplinary team; and calls on governments in Westminster and Cardiff to draw up a strategy to ensure that patients across England and Wales have equal access to specialist services through a network of local clinics.

This motion has been signed by a total of 44 MPs.
