Provide life changing support
Our resources are here to help you provide life changing support to people living with muscle weakening and wasting conditions.
General Practitioners
Together with the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP), we created the first ever online course for GPs on the presentation and management of neuromuscular conditions in primary care. As part of our work in improving quality and outcomes for people with muscle wasting and weakening conditions, we are committed to working together with GPs across the UK, to ensure improved care for neuromuscular patients through local GP surgeries.
Acute and Emergency professionals
To support professionals working within the acute and emergency sector, we regularly hold webinars on management of neuromuscular conditions in emergency situations.
We have also campaigned and produced reports on Ambulance Action – to encourage ambulance trusts across the UK to set up a flagging system to allow better response for neuromuscular patients in emergency situation.
