A Good Overview of an ALS/MS Residence and Why Maine Needs One


Not long ago, I posted in this blog this statement: "Our foundation's primary mission is to build an ALS/MS Residence in Maine.". The challenge is that not many people know exactly what that means. It's a challenge only awareness and education will overcome. To that end, this is a great article from MDA/ALS News Magazine. It does a wonderful job of painting the picture of why this type of facility is different from traditional nursing home environments and why that's so needed for the unique (and younger) ALS/MS population.
