Tartu Resident with ALS Faces Nursing Care Recommendation For the fourth consecutive year, 56-year-old Katrin Kaalep remains completely paralyzed and requires round-the-clock care. Living in the Tartu district, Ms. Kaalep’s condition necessitates constant assistance with daily activities. Yesterday marked the final day of service provided by Ms. Kaalep’s contracted day caretaker. She is fully paralyzed throughout her body and requires 24-hour support. Despite her desire to continue living in her own home, the Tartu district has recommended she transition to a professional nursing care service. The decision stems from concerns regarding the current level of care provided at home. The existing caretakers lack the necessary medical expertise to adequately address Ms. Kaalep’s complex and persistent needs. This situation highlights the ongoing challenges faced by individuals with advanced ALS and their families in accessing appropriate and specialized care. Discussions are underway to determine the optimal long-term care solution for her, prioritizing her well-being and maintaining her preferred living environment.
