Evidence-Based Interventions

Focus Group

When:

Where: Friends House173-177 Euston RoadLondonNW1 2BJ

Friday, 7th of September12.30pm - 4.30pm

You are invited to have your say!

We would like to hear your views on the changes the NHS are proposing on prescribing interventions for 17 conditions.

To have your say, we invite you to come to our focus group (a day with other people with learning disabilities).

The NHS is looking at ways to decide

which ones it should keep using and

which it should stop using.

Interventions are surgical procedures

and treatments that doctors use to

treat some conditions.

They are hoping that the changes

will allow the right interventions to

be used at the right time for some

conditions and save staff time and

money.

The proposed changes also mean

that the NHS could focus more on

using new and better treatments.

They want to be sure that latest

research is used in deciding

treatments.

New evidence has shown that some

interventions are not always the best

or the first way of treating some

conditions.

Last year, the NHS spent a lot of money on interventions.

You are invited to this focus

group to say what you think

about the proposed changes.

Refreshments will be provided.

Please let us know if you have

any access needs, so we can plan

for this before the event.
