Welsh Government MSK consultation

Open Consultation

Arthritis and long-term musculoskeletal conditions in adults

Consultation ends 30 July 2021

The Welsh Government has released a consultation document: Arthritis and Long-term Musculoskeletal Conditions in adults. This guidance is currently being developed to replace the Welsh Government’s Service Development and Commissioning Directives for Arthritis and Chronic Musculoskeletal Conditions [2006].

The new consultation seeks views on the proposed direction of the draft guidance and closes on 30 July 2021.

Please see the links below to the consultation documents:

The document provides definitive models of access and advises health boards on designing, planning and managing person-centred services for adults living with arthritis and long-term musculoskeletal conditions. Using a whole-system approach, the framework directs healthcare professionals to appropriate guidance and advises them on the most appropriate service and support available.

Responses can be made by email or post.
