What is Parkinson's Disease?
Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurological disorder affecting the brain, balance, coordination and movement. No two people experience the disease the same way however commonalities exist between individuals who present the disease. The disease affects roughly 60,000 men and women across the United States annually. Currently, there are no cures and the causes still remain unknown, however, treatment options are available to manage symptoms.
Right at Home and Parkinson's Disease
We’d all love to live in a world without Parkinson’s, yet if you are one of the many Americans living with this chronic condition, we at Right at Home Boston and North understand how daunting living well with Parkinson’s disease can be for both you and family caregivers. That is why we have skilled and compassionate home caregivers who help relieve the pain and stress of managing the unpredictable and common symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Our specialized home care teams know just how to work with the muscle stiffness and tremors to prevent frustration and falls. Right at Home caregiving services help individuals with Parkinson’s disease stand strong, feel safe and confident in the comfort and familiarity of wherever they call home.
In addition to providing quality home care services to those with Parkinson's Disease we are also members of the Moving Day Boston planning committee and a national sponsor for Moving Day.
