Optimal clinical pathways for adults with neurological conditions

The optimal clinical pathways for adults with neurological conditions set out what good treatment, care and support look like. This includes treatment and support for people who are experiencing the first symptoms of a neurological condition, right through to people who have lived with such conditions for a long time.

The pathways can be used to commission and improve local services to meet the needs of the local population and deliver efficiency savings across the system. They have been developed by consultant neurologists, with support from allied health professionals, patient groups and people affected by neurological conditions. 

Optimal clinical pathways:

• Functional Neurological Disorder

• Headache and facial pain

• Movement disorders

• Traumatic Brain Injury

• Motor Neurone Disease

• Neuromuscular conditions

• Multiple sclerosis

• Neurological autoimmune disorders

• Epilepsy

Cross-cutting theme pathways:

• Mental health (in development)

• Neurogenetics

• Rehabilitation
