A small proportion of respondents reported providing services for individuals with dystonia (28%), Tourette syndrome (17%), and Rett syndrome (13%). There was also a paucity of diverse healthcare professionals across all institutions, but particularly mental healthcare professionals in hospitals. Lastly, the majority of respondents reported numerous exclusion criteria with regard to service provision, including prevalent comorbid conditions.<jats:italic><jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold><\/jats:italic>If the few services provided for these neurological patient populations exclude common comorbidities, it is likely that there will be no other place for these individuals to seek care.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/cjn.2017.207","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,16]],"date-time":"2017-08-16T04:26:41Z","timestamp":1502857601000},"page":"670-675","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Health and Community-Based Services for Individuals with Neurological Conditions"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Sarah E.P.","family":"Munce","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kristen B.","family":"Pitzul","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sara J.T.","family":"Guilcher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tarik","family":"Bereket","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mae","family":"Kwan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"James","family":"Conklin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joan","family":"Versnel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tanya","family":"Packer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Molly","family":"Verrier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Connie","family":"Marras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Richard","family":"Riopelle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Susan B.","family":"Jaglal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0317167117002074_ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1468-0009.00060"},{"key":"S0317167117002074_ref26","volume-title":"The Way Forward: A New Disability Policy Framework for Australia","year":"2009"},{"key":"S0317167117002074_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"188","DOI":"10.24095\/hpcdp.33.3.09","article-title":"Cross-Canada Forum: National Population Health Study of Neurological Conditions in Canada","volume":"33","author":"Caesar-Chavannes","year":"2013","journal-title":"Chronic Dis Inj Can"},{"key":"S0317167117002074_ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2008-2193"},{"key":"S0317167117002074_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1478-4505-10-36"},{"key":"S0317167117002074_ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.healthpol.2012.02.018"},{"key":"S0317167117002074_ref2","unstructured":"Canadian Institute for Health Information.
