Our Work
Key areas of work that the Alliance is currently involved with include:
  • The development of national standards of care for neurological conditions

The Alliance believes that national standards are the quickest and most effective means of improving the quality of life for people affected by neurological conditions in Scotland and their families and carers.

In November 2004 the Scottish Executive announced that they would be developing standards of care for neurological conditions. At the beginning of 2006 NHS QIS announced that the development of standards of care for neurological conditions would be included in its work programme.

The Alliance was on a steering group of a project to map services for people affected by neurological conditions, commissioned by NHS QIS.
