Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what medical positions in the NHS require mandatory participation or engagement with disabled people or families to improve understanding.

There are no specific medical positions for which participation or engagement with disabled people or families is mandated nationally as a condition of practice. Employers are responsible for ensuring that staff have the knowledge and skills required for their roles, and professional standards and training requirements for doctors are set by the General Medical Council and relevant royal colleges.
