Neurology Services Bendigo Health

Bendigo Health is on a mission to fund a brand new Neurology Nurse to help support people living with neurological disorders such as MS, MND, Parkinson’s, stroke and epilepsy.

Having access to a dedicated neurology nurse can make an enormous difference in the lives of people living with neurological conditions.

When patients don’t have access to this specialist support, they often face:

• Faster disease progression and more severe symptoms

• Higher levels of anxiety and depression

• A lower overall quality of life

With a dedicated neurology nurse, patients receive:

• Personalised advice on managing symptoms and treatment side effects

• Education and guidance to make informed treatment decisions

• Support with ongoing care, including the use and monitoring of therapies

• Compassionate emotional and psychological support for them and their families

This role not only improves the wellbeing of patients and their loved ones, it also helps reduce hospital admissions, ease pressure on neurologists, and lower costs for the health system.

By supporting this role, you’re helping ensure local people living with neurological conditions receive the care and support they deserve, close to home.
