We cater to all your needs with our Disease-Specific Care solutions

In addition to assisting many older adults with dementia, Cooperative Home Care provides in-home assistance and care for people of all ages with diseases that affect their ability to function independently in their daily lives.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, commonly called “ALS”, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. As this disease significantly affects one’s ability to function physically we have served many people with this diagnosis. There are so many physical and emotional challenges for the individual who has this diagnosis and their family and friends who care for them. Some ways that we can support them is to share information about resources, starting with the ALS Association. They offer education and resources from a perspective of understanding and compassion. They also have events throughout the year to support their organization and its efforts to help people with ALS through treatment and cure research. There are many local chapters.

Multiple Sclerosis, or “MS”, is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body. It is another disease that may significantly affect one’s physical functioning. Our training and understanding of this disease helps us to serve an individual with MS by helping them to do things for themselves as much as possible. Promoting their independence while providing peace of mind that they are completely and safely assisted is reassuring. Visit the National MS Society to find local chapter information and many other resources.
