Healthcare Professionals
Many people who provide medical, social or therapeutic services to people with MS are part of what is termed the Health Care Team or Multi-Disciplinary Team. In MS, a coordinated approach to managing the various affect of MS can prove most beneficial. Therefore making the best use of specialists in different fields or disciplines will capitalise on your treatments and interventions.
