MS can be very challenging. Even for a caregiver.
Many individuals with MS rely on their spouse, significant other, children and friends to provide care for them. Their responsibilities include bathing, toileting, feeding, and other activities of daily living. Needless to say, it can become a full time responsibility. That’s where we come in; we’re The Caregiver Relief Program. At the National MS Society Long Island Chapter, we provide funding for a much-needed break for the caregiver. Very simply, it’s the chance for the caregivers to care for themselves.
We provide funding for the relief while the caregiver can run an errand, shop or enjoy an afternoon cup of tea. This unique relief program is funded through private donations. Please reach into your hearts and wallets and give what you can to help the many caregivers who help so many. In addition, if you know a caregiver who could use some help, please have them contact us.
