Structured to benefit those who provide care for people living with Parkinson’s disease whether in a nursing home, residential home or their own home.
Participants will identify the signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, gain an understanding of its causes and examine the most effective ways of caring for people living with the disease. This mental health training course aims to promote and share models of good practice in care by addressing the challenges experienced by people with Parkinson’s in relation to mobility, swallowing, communication and other activities of daily living, increasing empathy between the carer and the cared for.
