Abstract

Cerebral palsy is a relatively common cause of physical and neurological disability. The health and care needs of people with cerebral palsy bring medical complexity and frequent contact with health professionals. The GP has a unique opportunity to provide continuity for the person throughout their life course and can be an important support for the patient and their carers during illness and periods of transition. This article aims to highlight the important clinical aspects of cerebral palsy and the principles of management, with an emphasis on the role of the GP.
