September is a month of increased awareness for Muscular Dystrophy and related neuromuscular conditions - and for us at ISA Healthcare, the team behind MMEx, it has a personal connection.
Our colleague Fatin lives with Muscular Dystrophy, and this September we’re proud to stand alongside her in helping raise awareness.
Muscular Dystrophy refers to a group of genetic conditions that cause progressive muscle weakness.
There are many different types, and the experience and impact can vary considerably from person to person.
That individual experience is an important part of awareness.
It means recognising that people living with Muscular Dystrophy are not defined by their diagnosis, understanding that support may look different for different people, and - most importantly - listening rather than making assumptions.
Kiara is a valued part of our ISA Healthcare team, bringing her own skills, experience, perspective and personality to the work we do every day.
So this September, we’re taking the opportunity to support Kiara, raise awareness and recognise the many individuals and families living with Muscular Dystrophy and other neuromuscular conditions.
We also encourage our community to learn a little more.
