Already a delicate balance, Parkinson’s symptom management can be even trickier in the hospital because:

🚶 People often do not get enough movement opportunities.
⏱️ Parkinson’s medications may not be given following the at-home schedule.
đź’Š Medications that worsen PD are sometimes prescribed.
đźš« PD medication doses are often delayed or missed.

These 5 Hospital Care Needs outline the importance adhering to Parkinson’s guidelines during planned or unplanned hospital stays. Learn more for Patient Safety Awareness Week by ordering or downloading your free Hospital Safety Guide: Parkinson.org/HospitalSafety
