We just received a message on Pickaway Senior Center's Facebook page. The Support Group Meeting at the Pickaway Senior Center has to be rescheduled to a later date.
Parkinson’s disease progresses over time — so does your role as a care partner. Explore all stages of the care partner journey and practical tips that can help along the way.
The American Parkinson Disease Association works tirelessly every day to support and empower anyone who is impacted by Parkinson’s disease (PD). Our nationwide network provides information and referral, education and support programs, health and wellness activities, and other events to facilitate a better quality of life for the PD community, while also funding vital research. It is this grassroots structure that distinguishes APDA from other organizations serving people with PD.
Care partners play a major role in the well-being of a person with Parkinson's disease. Here we share tips for managing a loved one's care, navigating a relationship with a Parkinson's diagnosis and making time to care for oneself.
As a Parkinson's care partner, you are an essential member of your person's medical and care teams. While most care partners are spouses, children, siblings, and parents, even friends can be part of the care team. Your role as a Parkinson's care partner will evolve over the years; therefore, we want to offer you resources and action plans to help YOU live well while also providing the best care possible for your loved one.
The Secret Life of Parkinson's is a podcast created by Parkinson's patients, sharing their stories
and interviewing others, on things we deal with on a daily basis. It's hard for people with PD to
talk to others about the disease because sometimes it's difficult for the patient themselves to
describe what they are feeling. Talking to other PD patients helps us express what we are going through in ways we might not be able to express to family and friends. (Subscription Available)
