In the early stages, people with this disease are still able to function independently. However, their ability to handle many ordinary tasks begins to decrease, requiring even more assistance. This can be difficult for family members and for those affected who may become frustrated over time.

Parkinson’s Home Support Care

Parkinson’s disease is one of the most common neurodegenerative conditions along with Alzheimer’s. Its effects progress over time and symptoms become more severe which can prove to be difficult for people as they try to cope with the increased difficulties in their overall function.

As the disease progresses, treatment and care for Parkinson’s become an even greater challenge. Patients require more motivation and emotional care to help maintain a level of independence.

Providing care in the home can go a long way in reducing the severity of symptoms by providing a familiar environment that gives them the reassurance they might need.
