The likelihood of having a comorbid mental health condition is higher for neurology patients than for the long-term conditions patient population overall. Yet the emotional, cognitive and mental health needs of neurology patients have tended to be invisible, even within policy on neurological conditions. The Neurological Alliance has published a report - Parity of esteem for people affected by neurological conditions: meeting the emotional, cognitive and mental health needs of neurology patients - presenting new research examining current services, detailing care characterised by disjointed patient pathways and patchy access to specialist neurological mental health services.

The full report is now available on their web site: http://bit.ly/MH4neuro
