title: [Nursing assessment of the symptoms of discomfort of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis].
abstract: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a fast-progressing neurodegenerative disease of the motor neurons. It is important to regularly assess the patient's condition on the motor, bulbar, nutritional, respiratory and psychological levels. The Neuro Centre network carries out assessments, plays an advisory role and provides a link between the hospitalisation-consultation sites and the home.
