About our Reasonable Adjustments project

It is clear that many NHS services are failing to make ‘reasonable adjustments’ to make a wide range of health services accessible for people with learning disabilities. We will undertake a national survey of NHS Trusts to see how ‘reasonable adjustments’ for people with learning disabilities are described in their Trust policies and practice guidelines. We will look at whether, and how, the working of these policies is monitored or audited, and what any available findings tell us. We will share examples of good practice with NHS Trusts.

We produced a report on the main findings of this project in February 2011. We produced a database of good practice in reasonable adjustments using examples sent in as evidence for the survey in May 2011. We have also produced a video guide to using the database and a second video guide to loading reasonable adjustments onto the database.
