MND Care at Home

Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a progressive neurological condition that affects the nerve cells responsible for controlling the muscles. As it progresses, the condition can make even the most routine activities, such as eating, drinking and speaking, difficult. 

For MND care, entrust your well-being to our team of highly experienced carers and nurses. Prestige Inhome Care understands that the critical nature of MND care requires specialised knowledge and skills that are essential for enhancing the quality of life for people facing this challenge.

Our dedicated MND care team collaborate closely with you, your loved one, and your MND healthcare experts. Prestige’s dedicated care specialists can ensure a comprehensive and tailored approach that helps to manage symptoms, while you or your loved one continue to live life with dignity and independence. 

What are the benefits of receiving Motor Neurone Disease Care at Home?

For those with MND, living at home with the support of professional care provides the familiar comforts of home and allows for greater independence. In addition to effective MND treatment, it’s essential to have access to the right MND care at home and ensure that the home is adapted to meet changing needs. 

Here are some key considerations for motor neurone disease care at home:

  • Home Modifications: To improve accessibility and safety, home modifications may be required. Installing grab bars, wheelchair ramps, and wider doorways can make life easier for those with MND. Prestige can assist with preparing modifications. 
  • Assistive Devices: A range of assistive devices, such as powered wheelchairs, electric beds and communication aids, can improve quality of life. Prestige carers possess extensive knowledge and are proficient in providing guidance and instructions on suitable devices.
  • Personal Care: Personal care can help to manage the practical aspects of daily life. 
  • Carer and Nursing Support: For those who find self-care a challenge, or whose loved ones are unable to provide some elements of support, a Prestige Inhome Care carer can provide the necessary assistance. For those with advanced MND, Prestige nursing care can be arranged to meet their needs. 
  • Respite: Respite care can provide people living with MND and their caregivers with a break from the demands of daily life. A period of respite with the support of Prestige’s respite services helps to maintain physical and emotional well-being.
