Live-in multiple sclerosis (MS) care
Multiple sclerosis (MS) defies the assumption that only older people need caring support. Predominantly affecting people in mid-life, individuals living with multiple sclerosis need highly personalised, age-appropriate care services to ensure that they can live as well as possible.

What is multiple sclerosis?
- Relapsing MS is the most common, with up to 85% of sufferers being diagnosed with this type. These individuals have defined attacks of symptoms, which fade away partially or completely before the same or different symptoms reoccur at a later point.
- Primary progressive MS affects around 10-15% of sufferers. For these individuals, symptoms gradually appear and worsen, rather than the pattern of attacks seen in relapsing MS.
- Secondary progressive MS is what often follows relapsing MS, and involves a build-up of disability that doesn’t fluctuate as in relapsing MS.
