In-Home Specialized Multiple Sclerosis Care & Assistance
While not as common as many of the other specialized conditions we help manage, multiple sclerosis is a debilitating condition that can have an enormous negative impact on your loved one’s quality of life.
It’s unlikely for seniors to develop MS after the age of 60, but it’s not impossible. Regardless of whether this is a new condition or something your loved one has already been dealing with for years, Qualicare is here to provide 360-degree home care for MS patients.
You may be functioning as an unpaid caregiver for your family member, but conditions like this pose uniquely difficult challenges for Multiple Sclerosis caregivers, which you may simply not have the skills or time to manage.
Let Qualicare help. We can help take that burden off your shoulders, and provide the specialized home care for Multiple Sclerosis your loved one needs.
Our At-Home Multiple Sclerosis Care Services
Depending on the client, MS could have both a mild or enormous impact on their daily lives. It may be chronic or recurring. That means each person’s Multiple Sclerosis caregiver needs to be adept at knowing how to help control symptoms on all sides of the spectrum.
On mild days, we can assist with mobility and support care services like cooking, grooming, cleaning, toileting, and maintaining general comfort throughout the day.
On days that are more severe, our compassionate caregivers can be both a physical and emotional support for clients, who may be struggling with numbness, tremors, or uncomfortable electric-shock sensations.
Sometimes when caring for someone with Multiple Sclerosis, a hand to hold or shoulder to lean on helps just as much as medication can. Our caregivers will treat your loved one like family, so you don’t have to worry about their physical or mental health when you’re not around.
Benefits of In-Home Care for Multiple Sclerosis
One of the most common symptoms of MS is partial or complete loss of vision, double-vision, or blurred sight, and for seniors living at home, this can pose serious safety risks for them getting around their living space safely.
Combined with some other common symptoms like fatigue, dizziness, tremors, or numbness, this condition is a recipe for disaster for seniors living alone
Slipping or tripping at home can cause serious life-threatening injuries to seniors, and those with these symptoms are much more likely to have an accident without the right support. That’s where Qualicare comes in.
Our helpful caregivers are available to provide as much or as little nursing care for Multiple Sclerosis that you might need. Best of all, our home health care for Multiple Sclerosis patients is available 24/7, so we can provide around-the-clock specialized care for your loved one.

Where Can Qualicare Clients Access Nursing Care for Multiple Sclerosis?

What if a Client Doesn’t Want a Multiple Sclerosis Caregiver Assigned to Them?
We understand that in some cases a client’s condition and declining health may make them feel like they’re losing their ability to remain independent, which can in turn have a negative impact on their mental health.
Our compassionate Multiple Sclerosis caregivers are skilled at talking clients through the value of having assistance throughout the day, and creating a positive bond with your loved one that makes their presence feel more like a friend than a support care system.
Qualicare believes in ensuring clients remain as independent as possible in their lives at home. Our caregivers can provide round-the-clock home care for MS patients, without encroaching on your loved one’s personal space or sacrificing their dignity.
How Does a Caregiver Assist if a Client’s Condition Has Become Severe?
When MS symptoms become severe, our helpful caregivers are prepared to stay nearby and provide whatever supports your loved one needs throughout the day.
Whether they need physical assistance, like grooming and toileting, or they are confined to their bed and could use some soft conversation and gentle guidance to help them stay calm and collected, our caregivers will ensure your loved one’s health and comfort are protected as much as possible.
If a condition deteriorates to a point where our caregivers can no longer provide adequate support, they’ll be nearby to make sure your loved one gets any pertinent medical attention that’s needed to maintain their health and wellness.
