Brain: Injuries
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when he plans to publish the acquired brain injury action plan.
Answered by Mrs Sharon Hodgson
The Government recognises the significant and often life‑changing impact that acquired brain injury (ABI) can have on individuals and their families.
The Department is currently working with NHS England and a range of stakeholders, including other Government departments and the voluntary sector, to develop the ABI Action Plan. This work is considering how best to improve care, rehabilitation, and long-term support for people living with ABI, as well as how to strengthen coordination across services.
Given the breadth and complexity of this work, it is important that the action plan is informed by robust evidence and stakeholder engagement. The Department intends to publish the plan in due course, once this process has been completed.
