Improving Care in Epilepsy 2013

The report provides key findings which look beyond the often-quoted statistics, to identify the real barriers and enablers to providing better care. In its key recommendations, it provides a proposed set of shared goals towards the aim of improving epilepsy services for children and young people. Policy-makers and commissioners must take these recommendations and work together - in collaboration with professionals and with children, young people and their parents - in order to achieve lasting and transformational change. It is only through this process that the type of service that children and young people with epilepsy deserve can be delivered.
