The Golden West Chapter’s evidence based wraparound model of care combines coordinated, customized medical care and community and home-based services and support. The Chapter’s proven Excellence in ALS Care Initiative encompasses all key elements of our Care Services program which are focused on ensuring proactive, expert multidisciplinary care. In addition to providing direct services, we simultaneously engage the ALS community in activities that accelerate the search for effective treatments and cures.

The Chapter’s approach in the state of Hawaii is unduplicated and tailored for each client and their loved ones. For example, Care Managers help clients and their loved ones access information and resources in their communities, connect with clinicians who specialize in ALS, obtain durable medical equipment and augmentative communication devices available through the Chapter’s Equipment Loan Program, understand and navigate insurance benefits, provide guidance around home modification, help find professional caregivers, and connect with others living with ALS.
