This includes the analysis of the general health situation of population groups. It is used to monitor the incidence and prevalence of diseases and other health problems.</p><p>The Tenth Revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems includes in Chapter V a detailed classification of more than 300 mental and behavioural disorders.

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what assessment he has made of the effect on NHS service provision for seriously ill children and their families of the specialist senior nurses posts funded by the charity Well Child.

uin	196249
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/05/2014 answer text <p /> <p /> <p>We have not made any central assessment of this role. We are aware of the valuable work which Well Child does, and we were able to support Well Child with a grant in 2010-11 from the £19 million we made available for funding local schemes to support children's palliative care services.</p><p> </p><p>We understand that Well Child funds each nurse for a period of three years after which time the individual National Health Service health provider commits to continue the post. Each nurse is employed and managed by the local healthcare trust in which they work and therefore it would seem that the providers would be best placed to comment on the impact they have made.</p> answering member constituency Central Suffolk and North Ipswich answering member printed Dr Daniel Poulter question first answered 06/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 3932 label Biography information for Dr Dan Poulter
