Recognize & Respond to Parkinson's Psychosis
Wellness Wednesday
Not everyone with Parkinson’s will experience psychosis, but it can be frightening if you don’t know what’s happening or how to handle it. It is important to be able to recognize these symptoms if they occur. Learn what to watch for and know how to respond to these behavior changes to ensure the safety and well-being of you and your loved one.
