Parkinson's, Sleep and Me
Join us at the Rocky Mountain Parkinson’s Symposium for the educational program Parkinson's, Sleep, and Me. Getting adequate rest and sleep is an important component of overall health and quality of life. Parkinson’s disease (PD) creates many challenges to getting a good night’s sleep, both for the person with Parkinson’s and the caregiver. This program provides information on how Parkinson's disease affects sleep, and ways you can get a better night's sleep while living with PD.
