About the Webinar

What changes along the Parkinson’s disease journey, and how does care for this population also change? Planning, treatment, and what success looks like can all change when moving from a four-week plan to long-term Parkinson’s programing. Celebrating wins and helping individuals deal with the setbacks of this disease all become important parts of goal setting and therapy plans. This webinar will cover how to evolve your Parkinson’s program, and how we as clinicians must change our mindset to serve those with Parkinson’s in the best way possible.
