April 11th is World Parkinson's Day.
As experts in home care services, SARA is often asked by clients' with loved ones who have Parkinson's Disease, if they are going to develop dementia.
According to John Hopkins only 50% to 80% of Parkinson's Disease patients develop dementia and it is usually in the later stages of the disease.
"Parkinson's is caused by a loss of nerve cells that produce dopamine, affecting movement. As the disease spreads to other parts of the brain over time, it can impair cognitive functions like memory, attention, and reasoning, leading to Parkinson's Disease Dementia (PDD)."
Our SARA Certified Home Health Aides are trained to assist clients with their needs at any stage of Parkinson's Disease and Parkinson's Disease Dementia.
It is part of our commitment since 2010 help seniors, adults, and their families with their home care needs.
