Here’s what’s new . . .
Hospital Patient Care for Parkinson’s
Access to this page is via the blue Emergency/Hospital Page button at the top of the side bar to the right of every page, and under Patient Assistance (top menu). We’ve posted documents for you to download and print, to provide information to the emergency responders and providers in hospital and rehab who will care for you. There’s also a checklist to help you pack a hospital/emergency go-bag.
PD 101
We have a new section with information about the basics of Parkinson’s. It includes diagnosis and symptoms, Parkinsonisms, diet, exercise, and more. You’ll find these fact sheets under PD101 on the top menu of each page. Our thanks to Mick Reedy, MD, Movement Disorders Specialist with Inova Parkinson’s and Movement Disorders Center (IPMDC) for developing this series!
We hope you find this new information helpful!
