Addressing Parkinson's-Related Thinking Changes
Wellness Wednesdays: Mental Wellness Series
Thinking changes are common in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and can start developing even before diagnosis. Though these changes can be mild, especially early in PD, they can significantly impact the well-being of a person with Parkinson’s, as well as the people closest to them.
Join us to learn from people living with Parkinson’s and PD specialists about treatment and coping strategies for people with cognitive changes during this candid, virtual conversation.
Check out the accompanying blog article for tips to help you recognize, treat and cope with cognitive changes related to Parkinson’s.
