New treatments and advances in therapy for the ravages of
Parkinson's disease are constantly being researched and perfected
for patients, yet those afflicted still must endure tremors, poor
balance, speech problems, and lessened psychological well-being.
Patients and families need the most up-to-date information
available to improve quality of care and life.
This new, second edition of Caring for the Parkinson Patient covers
a variety of topics, providing information and helpful suggestions
for patients, families, and caregivers to aid them as they grapple
with this chronic, debilitating neurological disorder. Sixteen
accessible and information-packed essays by noted contributors
address diagnosis and treatment, new research, communication,
physical/ occupational therapy, nursing care, problems faced by the
caregiver, emotional changes, "neurorehab," prevention of falls,
sleep problems, surgery, community supports, the family, sexuality,
and safe home environments.
With a wealth of information, practical advice, and encouragement,
Caring for the Parkinson Patient is an indispensable resource guide
for all those touched by Parkinson's disease.
