To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment his Department has made of the adequacy of the provision of respiratory physiotherapy for (a) children and (b) adults with muscular dystrophy and neuromuscular conditions provided by (i) Leicester City Clinical Commissioning Group and (ii) University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust.
- Answer
-
No specific assessment has been made. NHS England has published service specifications for the neurological care of both children and adults which include exemplar service specifications for neuromuscular conditions. They set out what providers must have in place to offer evidence-based, safe and effective services. This includes access to physiotherapy and respiratory services.
