Muscular Dystrophy Services In Yorkshire And Humberside

EDM number 1971 in 2008-09, proposed by Terry Rooney on 21/07/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Health services.

That this House welcomes the launch of the Yorkshire and Humberside Muscle Group; notes that this group is led by local families and people affected by muscular dystrophy and related neuromuscular conditions living in the region; further notes that access to multi-disciplinary specialist care improves overall health outcomes and survival for patients; is deeply concerned that some patients are being denied access to this specialist care; calls on the Yorkshire and Humberside Specialist Commissioning Group, local primary care trusts and the Strategic Health Authority to take forward a review of neuromuscular services to identify areas of best practice and any gaps in NHS provision; and praises the campaign led by the Muscular Dystrophy campaign, local families, health professionals and other experts in their fight for full access to clinically effective, high quality specialised neuromuscular services across Yorkshire and Humberside.

This motion has been signed by a total of 20 MPs.
