Note: This account only posts external research that has been approved by the NAS research team. The National Autistic Society's Evidence and Research team are also partnering on this particular study.
You are invited to take part in a study to find out if Care Education and Treatment Reviews (C(E)TR’s) are helpful for people with learning disabilities and autistic people, and if they result in positive changes. The study is called ‘An evaluation of Care (EduCation) and treatment reviews for people with Learning disabilities and Autistic people’ or CECiLiA for short. It is funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research and being run by the Universities of Birmingham, East Anglia and Kent. Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust is sponsoring the project. People from the National Autistic Society, Learning Disability England and The Challenging Behaviour Foundation are also helping.
We want to hear about your experiences and opinions of C(E)TRs and would like you to complete a survey. It should take about 25 to 30 minutes to complete. We can provide help to complete it.
Taking part will give you the chance to contribute to the good practice guidance for C(E)TRs which we will be developing. We will also be asking autistic people and children and people and children with learning disabilities, C(E)TR panel members, and health, education and social care professionals including paid and unpaid care staff and Experts by Experience.
