The
Neurological Information and Access Partnership (NIAP) project was launched in
May 2009 to ensure that people in
Rehabilitation services such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy
play a key role in the management of neurological conditions; it is recognised
that people are happier and more able to live an independent life when they are
capable and able to make choices for themselves.

August and September 2009 two separate surveys were carried out in the
The first
survey was for health and social care professionals and the second, for people
with neurological conditions, including Parkinson's, and their carers.
The surveys
contained questions about access to services, barriers to services and ideas
for improvements.

from these surveys are being used to influence future service provision
creating clearer pathways to neurological rehabilitation, information and
advice.
