Parkinson’s disease affects approximately 7 to 10 million individuals worldwide. It is a chronic and progressive disorder of the motor system that results in symptoms such as tremors, slow movement, stiffness, and challenges with basic physical movements like walking. As it advances, it may also cause cognitive difficulties, behavioral issues, and even dementia.
Living with Parkinson’s disease can make it challenging to sleep, move around, manage medications, and enjoy time with others, affecting one’s quality of life. Muscle control problems and negative emotions may also arise due to these limitations.
But there is still hope and assistance available. By utilizing the services of one of AmeriChoice’s caregivers, patients can receive hands-on and friendly support from a professional companion in the comfort of their homes. Our caregivers collaborate with healthcare providers to develop a personalized daily routine plan aimed at making daily living more comfortable, enjoyable, and manageable.
