NHS update to learning disability mortality review

NHS update to learning disability mortality review Autistic people will now be specifically included in an improved and expanded LeDeR programme to drive improvements in care, the NHS announced today.

The move is part of changes to the learning from life and death reviews programme (LeDeR) which aims to make improvements to the lives of people with a learning disability.

The NHS has worked with stakeholders including bereaved families, people with a learning disability and autistic people over the past 12 months to develop the new policy which will focus not only on completing reviews but on ensuring that local health and social care systems implement actions at a local level to improve and save lives.
