Disease Care Providers Parkinson

Disease care providers Parkinson

Referring the best live-in home care providers for Parkinson’s starts with knowing your loved one’s physical circumstances.

Referring caregivers who can provide Parkinson’s home care visits and live-in help appropriate
for the needs of individuals with Parkinson’s disease.
Care Plus can refer caregivers who can provide comprehensive home care services for
individuals diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou
Gehrig’s disease), and other neurodegenerative movement disorders that progressively interfere with basic activities of daily living. The goal of every Parkinson’s referred Care Plus is to facilitate a fulfilling, independent life at home for your spouse, parent or other loved one with Parkinson’s through compassionate supervision and assistance with activities that tend to
become more difficult as the disease progresses.

Part-time Parkinson’s home care services are typically all that are needed in the early stages 
when symptoms are milder and minimally disruptive. The course of Parkinson’s is highly
individualized, however, and it is not possible to reliably predict what symptoms may develop or when, and therefore what the needs will be. In the earlier stages of Parkinson’s, many individuals are still capable of driving themselves to appointments and social activities. But transportation can become an issue as Parkinson’s progresses and symptoms can make it
increasingly complicated and sometimes less safe to perform basic activities of daily living.
Individuals with Parkinson’s may also develop cognitive symptoms including memory loss and
dementia. More information on Parkinson’s disease can be found by visiting the American
Parkinson’s Disease Association website.

Some of the services that the Parkinson’s home caregivers we refer to commonly provide
include:
• Companionship – interpersonal cognitive stimulation, facilitation of physical activity, and
intervention for loneliness and depression
• Personal care assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as
hygiene/bathing/grooming, transferring/positioning, mobility/walking, toileting/incontinence, and eating
• Personal care assistance with instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) such as meal
planning, cooking, light housekeeping, laundry, pet and plant care, transportation, errands,
shopping, doctor and other appointments

section of this website.
If medically necessary skilled nursing care for a loved one with Parkinson’s disease is required,
Care Plus can also refer skilled licensed practical nurses (LPNs) and registered nurses (RNs)
who have experience with the special needs of individuals with Parkinson’s disease to provide
in-home health care. For more information on medical home care, visit the Skilled Nursing
Services section of this website.
