News for Professionals

This page is dedicated to health and social care professionals in the Wessex & West Region. It provides useful information and highlights relevant topics in the region. Web links are given also to appropriate resources on the main MS Society web site and elsewhere.
Our aim is to support health and social care professionals in developing services for people affected by MS based on quality standards and evidence of effectiveness. Our programmes of sponsoring MS specialists within multi-disciplinary teams, providing education and training, and supporting heath and social care research, are pivotal in delivering this aim.

The MS Society Professional Network is a dynamic and growing group of professionals from all disciplines and in all settings with a shared interest in improving services for people with MS.

Regular Newsletters and an Annual Event are just two of the benefits of joining the network. More details are available by clicking on the title above.
