Spasticity is a motor disorder characterized by an abnormal increase in muscle tone, triggering the limbs to take on awkward positions, spasm, and resist movement. Causes include stroke, brain/spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, or cerebral palsy. Residents may experience pain, impaired functioning, pressure ulcers, and difficulty with ADLs, even with caregiver assistance. CareRx's turn-key Spasticity program which includes a nurse to support injections, improves resident well-being by improving physical limitations caused by spasticity.

Charlotte spent the majority of her life struggling to understand her excessive sleepiness (known as hypersomnia). Even after the relief and validation of being diagnosed with Idiopathic Hypersomnia, her treatment journey was not immediate. Now that she has found the right medication for her, Charlotte has become an advocate for others with disorders of hypersomnia and their access to care. Xyrem is a nighttime medication that can help people with hypersomnia by providing a more refreshing sleep, therefore allowing them to feel more rested and awake during the day. Unfortunately, the medication is not yet available in the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS), which means accessing it can be very expensive. Hypersomnia can be debilitating, and the best standard of treatment should be accessible to everyone. We encourage the government to consider the addition of Xyrem to the PBS, so that people with hypersomnia, like Charlotte, can best manage their sleep disorder and experience an improved quality of life.

Human babies are very vulnerable at birth, needing nervous system regulation provided by caregivers completely. If this does not happen, then we as infants feel the world is unsafe, cannot trust anyone, and that we are all alone. These early patterns can be healed through gentle rebuilding of the nervous system from one of threat to one of safety. Trust in our strength and vitality can be restored, to what it was meant to be.
