Protecting the mental health of our hard-working National Health Service staff is very important. That\u2019s why the Workforce Implementation Plan, led by Baroness Harding, will outline proposals for making the NHS \u2018the best place to work\u2019. Through this, we will be supporting employers who are responsible for staff mental health by investing in an expanded programme to implement the NHS staff health and wellbeing framework launched last year.<\/p>

The Department agrees that it is important that there is appropriate support for patients on discharge from hospital. All patients should have a discharge assessment to determine the level of care they will need upon discharge from hospital, including whether a care plan is needed.<\/p>
<\/p>
The NHS Long Term Plan makes clear the importance of moving care into the community, and this Government is committed to achieving this. It commits an extra £4.5 billion a year by 2023/24 of investment in primary care and community health services.<\/p>
<\/p>
The National Health Service is currently developing the Implementation Framework for the Long Term Plan. Improving discharge from hospital and supporting patients to recover their independence in the most appropriate setting will be taken into account within this framework.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4008", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Gosport"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Caroline Dinenage"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-04-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-04-01T11:45:27.167Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-03-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Home Care Services"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he has made an assessment of the implications for his policies of the recommendations in the Red Cross report entitled Home to the Unknown: Getting hospital discharge right; and whether he is taking steps to introduce an independence check prior to discharge or within 72 hours of going home, as recommended by the Red Cross.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1436", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Farrelly"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newcastle-under-Lyme"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Paul Farrelly"} ], "uin" : "237050"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1105191", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1105191/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Government is committed to ensuring all children living with epilepsy in England have access to effective epilepsy services.<\/p>

NHS England is responsible for securing and supporting high quality outcomes for people with epilepsy, and the vast majority of services for people with the condition are planned and commissioned by local clinical commissioning groups from their respective budgets.<\/p>
<\/p>
Once diagnosed, and with a management strategy in place, the majority of people with epilepsy can have their epilepsy controlled satisfactorily with anti-epileptic drugs, and be cared for through routine access to primary and secondary care.<\/p>

The Government is committed to raising awareness and understanding of autism in line with the autism strategy and Autism Act (2009). On 21 March 2019, I responded to the backbench business debate on autism services on behalf of the Government. This debate has helped to raise awareness and understanding of autism ahead of Autism Awareness Week 2019.<\/p>

On 13 February 2019, the Department launched an eight-week consultation on learning disability and autism training for health and care staff. We are consulting on proposals for introducing mandatory learning disability and autism training to ensure that staff across health and social care have the right skills and we have overall the right culture, to provide better support. The consultation is available at the following link:<\/p>
