MS Specialist Nurse
Our MS Specialist Nurse is here to provide support, guidance and clinical advice in all aspects of managing your symptoms. We work collaboratively with your local MS Specialist team to provide further care and assistance.
We understand that MS affects people in different ways and to different degrees.
Revive MS Support is the only charity in the West of Scotland providing nationwide support for people who are affected by Multiple Sclerosis. The centre was set up in 1984 by people living with MS and their families, and helps people manage the physical, emotional, social, and financial impacts that come with a diagnosis of MS.
Anyone affected by MS can use Revive’s services, and can be referred by a health or social care professional or self-refer.
We also offer support for people who are caring for loved ones with MS.
