Motor Neurone Disease – Local NHS Support Somerset

A diagnosis of motor neurone disease (MND) can often take a long time to confirm. We provide a range of tests, often on a repeated basis on the nerves and muscles, to diagnose this condition.

If you or a member of your family is diagnosed, we will co-ordinate your care here in the neurology department. We monitor and support you with help from a team of health professionals in speech, diet, eating, breathing support and physiotherapy.

Our community neurological rehabilitation nurse specialist works with patients across Somerset. You can contact her on the number below.
