New to Parkinson's: Care Partner Basics

Wellness Wednesday
We all want to do our best to support our loved one with Parkinson’s. While it does not require special training, it takes time to learn the best ways to help a spouse, partner, or loved one living with PD. In this program, we will offer tips on how to make a positive impact in the life of your loved one living with Parkinson’s while also supporting yourself.
