1
PEG feeding and complex nutrition
PEG, NJ, and bolus feeding training delivered in person by a clinician. Continence and skin care that anticipates the next stage.
Motor Neurone Disease
MND support that keeps pace with the disease, not the calendar.
MND moves. The plan that worked last month may not match the participant this month. WEYA reviews supports clinically and re-skills the team before the change is needed, not after.
What WEYA actually does
The clinical specifics, not the brochure.
2
Communication preservation
Eye-gaze, communication boards, and slowed-speech literacy. We never speak around a participant.
3
Non-invasive ventilation literate
Workers comfortable with NIV setup, mask hygiene, and recognising respiratory deterioration.
4
End-of-life dignity
Continuity of care into palliative phases. The same faces, the same routines, until they are no longer needed.
Who this page is for

- Adults with bulbar or limb-onset MND

The fears we hear most
Named honestly. Answered clinically.
“Workers will not be ready when the disease progresses.”
Our response
Quarterly clinical review of the plan. Re-training delivered before the participant needs it.
“The worker is uncomfortable with PEG or NIV.”
Our response
PEG and NIV competency confirmed before any worker is rostered.
“End-of-life will mean a new face.”
Our response
We commit to continuity into the palliative phase. The team that started will be the team that finishes.
