	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/11/2017 answer text <p>On 24 February 2016, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence published a new best practice guideline on the assessment and management of Motor Neurone Disease (MND). The guideline sets out the signs and symptoms of the disease and recommends that robust protocols and pathways are in place to inform healthcare professionals about MND, how it may present and to inform healthcare professionals in all settings about local referral arrangements. The guideline can be found by following the link below:</p><p><a href="http://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng42/resources/motor-neurone-disease-assessment-and-management-1837449470149" target="_blank">www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng42/resources/motor-neurone-disease-assessment-and-management-1837449470149</a></p><p>Further to this, the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) and the MND Association have worked together to produce a ‘Red Flag Tool’ which sets out key signs of MND to help general practitioners to identify suspected cases and refer them promptly to a neurologist for appropriate investigation. The RCGP and the British Medical Journal have both produced MND e-learning courses.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 07/11/2017 11:59:40 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
