Caring for Someone with Advanced Parkinson’s

This video provides an overview of what you need to know as the caregiver of someone with advanced Parkinson’s. Watch the rest of the videos in the series, and refer to them as needed, for more information and tips on a variety of caregiving issues.

The information here offers suggestions and helpful hints, but is not designed to answer all questions.

Plans and Scheduling
