Care, Education & Treatment Reviews & Dynamic Support Registers


NHS England has published a new policy which aims to prevent unnecessary hospital admissions for people with a learning disability and autistic people. The policy includes new guidance on the implementation of dynamic support registers (DSRs) and updates to the Care, Education and Treatment Reviews (CETRs). The easy read and plain English versions of the policy have been co-produced with people with a learning disability and autistic people.

The new guidance will support local NHS services to better understand the needs of people with a learning disability and/or people who are autistic in their area, so that they can make sure people receive the right support. By understanding people’s needs and recognising early signs that might lead to a crisis it means that extra support can be put in place quickly, so the person doesn’t end up going into hospital (or to other out of area placement) unnecessarily.

More information, including some short films can be found on the [NHS England website].
