Understanding neurological conditions and how to support people affected by them
The ‘Understanding Neurology’ e-learning course has been created by the Essex Neurology Network for health and social care practitioners who provide services and support for people affected by neurological conditions.
The course provides insight into what it is like to live with a neurological condition including brain injury, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and stroke. Developed and presented by both practitioners and patients, the modules will equip the learner with a better understanding of the symptoms and care pathways for each condition and provide access to more information to support learning.
About the Essex Neurology Network
The Essex Neurology Network is comprised of national and local organisations working to support people affected by neurological conditions. The network is hosted by Healthwatch Essex.
The Network was established to raise awareness and promote understanding of neurological conditions, in order to secure the highest standards of service and care.
We are immensely grateful to Healthwatch Essex for making the production of this e-learning course possible and indeed, to all the staff and volunteers who have given their time so generously. We hope that by completing this course, you will contribute to our aim of generating a lasting positive impact for those people living day to day with a neurological condition.

“I felt this course covered some interesting aspects of Neurological conditions. It made me want to study these aspects further. It has also helped in my role in social care and how these conditions relate to mental health.”
“Great half day and concise course. Clinically informative but brilliant emphasis on the patient perspective. Great to hear directly about some of the positive things healthcare professionals do but especially the small things that can be done to make big differences to patients' experiences and lives. Very helpful information regarding further education, signposting and supporting services available – a really useful course! Thank you!”
