As with the majority of NHS services, integrated care boards, are responsible for commissioning local services such as rehabilitation for patients with Functional Neurological Disorders (FND), including those in Slough.

There is no one single approach to managing patients with FND. Treatment may involve drugs to manage specific symptoms, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, rehabilitation care and psychological support.
