The National Clinical Audit of Seizures and Epilepsies for Children and Young People (Epilepsy 12) has published a new report based on the first year of care for children and young people (CYP) after a first paediatric assessment between 1 December 2021 and 30 November 2022 in England and Wales.
This report contains a number of key findings relating to the involvement of appropriate professionals, mental health, appropriate assessment and care planning. It also includes five recommendations, namely calls to:
- Improve participation in Epilepsy12
- Increase the scope and breadth of epilepsy teams
- Establish or improve processes and pathways, to ensure timely access to care
- Develop models of engagement that enable groups where there may be inequalities to contribute to service improvement
- Support participation and benchmarking against relevant ongoing quality improvement projects.
