The brain is the headquarters of the body. The spinal cord and the nerves that run throughout the body are how the brain’s instructions are communicated and executed. Involuntary functions such as the heart beat and lung respiration as well as voluntary functions such as walking, speaking and swallowing are all controlled by the central nervous system.

There are more than 600 diseases of the nervous system.

Major types include:

  • Huntington’s disease
  • Muscular dystrophy
  • Spina bifida
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Alzheimer’s disease
  • Stroke
  • Spinal cord and brain injuries
  • Epilepsy
  • Brain tumors
  • Meningitis
  • Frontotemporal dementia

Neurological disorders affect hundreds of millions of people each year to varying degrees and outcomes. Many of the more severe cases will require caregiving since their physical as well as cognitive abilities may be compromised. Their need for care will continue and intensify into their senior years. They will need help with the activities of daily living such as personal grooming, dressing and meal preparation.
