Free advice resource – Diagnosis Unknown

 

Many families struggle to obtain a specific diagnosis for their disabled child's condition. This can be a frustrating and lengthy ordeal and it is not unusual to have to wait five years. 

Leading children's disability charity Newlife Foundation works with families to help achieve a diagnosis so they can access the relevant treatment, care and support their children need. 

As part of its national Nurse Helpline Service Newlife has launched 'Diagnosis Unknown', a free downloadable online advice resource. The information can be found by going to the charity's website www.newlifecharity.co.uk
