Wellness Wednesday: Opening Up on Uncomfortable Topics | Parkinson's Foundation

Описание: For more information on Parkinson's disease, visit: https://www.parkinson.org/

There are many daily challenges associated with Parkinson’s disease that may lead to social discomfort and ultimately isolation. This webinar will focus on a few that may be less talked about including drooling, urinary incontinence, dyskinesia and even eating in public. We will discuss how each impacts the person with Parkinson’s and address ways to speak to family and friends about how these visible symptoms cause self-consciousness in social situations.

Speaker:
Taylor Rush, PhD - Health Psychologist
Director of Behavioral Services and Interdisciplinary Programs
Center for Neurological Restoration
Cleveland Clinic, A Parkinson's Foundation Center of Excellence
