The recommendations were developed by a group of NHS professionals who live with Parkinson's, in collaboration with the Excellence Network. 

You can download a recommendation document for each country of the UK. There is also a Hospital benchmarking template document to assist organisations in their journey towards time critical medication improvements.

The NHS Professionals living with Parkinson's group also produced a short video called Time critical medication: It's time.
