Newly Diagnosed: Living Your Best Life with Parkinson’s

The Newly Diagnosed webinar will discuss how each newly diagnosed patient is different from another. In this webinar we will discuss the assessment and awareness necessary as a provider to understand each unique patient’s background, life stage, and social status in order to deliver the most optimal support. We will discuss the palliative care model in Parkinson’s disease as well as the interdisciplinary approach and initiating at time of diagnosis. This provides not only support to the patient but can help prevent caregiver burden and strain.
