Magee offers its MS patients case management services designed to assist them in
navigating the healthcare environment. Many issues outside of a patient’s
medical care can impact the patient’s ability to maximize progress towards
achieving independence. The Case Management department will help coordinate all
services needed to arrange for therapy, assist in financial matters and educate
patients and families on their disability. Additionally, Magee patients and
family members take part in a variety of educational activities to learn about
their injuries and illnesses. Patients learn what to expect from life at home
with a disability, how to care for themselves and prevent complications. The
patient and family learn how to support each other; they learn problem-solving
skills; and they learn how to become advocates for their healthcare rights.
