Motor Neurone Disease Care at Home

If you or your loved one requires in-home support services for motor neurone disease care, our team of compassionate professionals will help you navigate through the different stages of the disease and make the most of life in the meantime.

Here’s a breakdown of what we can provide:

• Symptom Management: Our team is qualified to address issues like muscle cramps, spasticity, swallowing difficulties, and the pain individuals with MND can experience through medications and therapies.
• Physiotherapy: We can help clients follow a tailored exercise routine with external expert guidance to maintain strength and flexibility. This is particularly important to prevent contractures and promote body mobility for as long as possible.
• Occupational Therapy: As the disease progresses, we recognise the importance of helping clients maintain independence with their daily activities. We support them by introducing adaptive devices and advising on how to most effectively adjust the home environment.
• Psychosocial Support: Navigating emotions through MND can be challenging for clients, their families and loved ones. This is why our team is able to provide compassionate emotional and psychological support to help them with anxiety, depression and emotional strain.
• Palliative Care: As MND progresses, we can support you as the focus shifts to comfort care, pain management, and end-of-life care.

At SweetTree, we believe in empowering our clients to experience life to the fullest while adjusting to the challenges that motor neurone disease poses.
