Course Overview

This course provides a specialized framework for support workers assisting participants living with Multiple Sclerosis. It focuses on the customization of care to address the unpredictable and fluctuating nature of this neurological condition, ensuring support remains responsive to both “relapsing” and “progressive” phases.

Aligned with NDIS high-intensity support and SIL standards, this training equips staff with the skills to manage physical mobility challenges, sensory changes, and the significant impact of “MS fatigue” while fostering the participant’s independence and quality of life.

What You’ll Learn

Define Multiple Sclerosis as an autoimmune condition and understand the role of myelin damage in nerve signaling.
Distinguish between the different types of MS (RRMS, SPMS, and PPMS) and how they influence support needs.
Implement practical strategies for managing physical symptoms, including spasticity, balance issues, and heat sensitivity.
Master the “Energy Conservation” principle to help participants manage debilitating fatigue during daily living activities.
Deliver empathetic psychosocial support for the emotional impact of a chronic, fluctuating diagnosis.
Navigate the essentials of Supported Independent Living (SIL) specifically for MS, including environmental modifications and assistive technology.
Identify community resources and NDIS pathways for specialized allied health interventions (OT, Physio, Speech Pathology).
Maintain accurate documentation of symptom “flares” and functional changes to support NDIS plan reviews.
