OUR PARKINSON’S DISEASE CARE SERVICES
We provide a wide range of services to support individuals living with Parkinson’s Disease, including:
- Medication Management – We understand the importance of taking Parkinson’s medications at the correct time. Levodopa is the most effective medication for treating the symptoms of the disease. There are various forms of the medication. Caregivers can help ensure that all medications are taken properly and at the appropriate time.
- Emotional Support – Caregivers provide companionship and emotional support for those living with the challenges caused by Parkinson’s Disease. They are often the first to recognize the mood and physical changes caused when Levodopa has worn off.
- Exercise Assistance – Daily movement and activity is important for all of us, but particularly for those living with the disease. Studies have shown that a number of exercises are helpful for slowing the progression of the disease and improving quality of life. Exercise can also improve strength and balance, reducing fall risk. Caregivers can assist with exercise routines.
- Safety Supervision – Caregivers assist with daily activities that involve higher levels of fall risk including showering, toileting, and walking in and outside of the home.
- Meal Planning and Preparation – Proper nutrition is critical for maintaining optimal health. Caregivers are able to prepare balanced meals and develop meal plans to meet any need or taste.
- Transportation – Caregivers may drive clients to medical appointments, to social engagements, or for daily errands.
- Housekeeping – Parkinson’s Disease can cause varying levels of strength and endurance. Caregivers are able to assist with the daily housekeeping activities to prevent work from piling up.
- Respite Care for Families – Spouses and children often provide daily support for loved ones living with Parkinson’s Disease. This can be physically and emotionally draining for anyone. Caregivers provide respite and help family members maintain the relationship they desire.
Living with Parkinson’s Disease can create challenges for those living with the disease. However, effective medication management, daily exercise, safety supervision, and proper nutrition can greatly enhance quality of life for those living with Parkinson’s Disease. We have a client whose family moved him into an assisted living facility due to frequent falls and significant mood changes. He unfortunately bounced from facility to facility until he was able to return home with help from SYNERGY HomeCare. The medication management, safety supervision, and assistance with daily activities provided by caregivers helped him maintain a full life in the home that he loved.
