Navigating the Emergency Room with Parkinson's
A visit to the Emergency Department (ED) can be stressful for anyone—but for people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD), it often comes with added challenges. From delayed access to medications to the risk of receiving drugs that can worsen symptoms, understanding how to prepare and advocate for your needs is critical. This program will provide practical tools and strategies to help you or your loved one communicate effectively with healthcare providers, ensure timely access to medications, and avoid common pitfalls in the ED.
