SUMMARY:Dr. Gilbert Hosts: Palliative Care for Parkinson’s Disease
DESCRIPTION:Palliative care is a medical approach for those with complex illnesses\, in which the focus is on maximizing quality of life. Contrary to popular belief\, palliative care is not just for late-stage disease -- this approach can be applied at any stage of the disease\, even at the time of diagnosis! However\, it does become more important as the disease advances. Many people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have benefited from the palliative care approach from their physicians (and possibly not even realized it). When a treatment or therapy is added to improve quality of life\, that is palliative care!\n \nOur special guest is a movement disorders physician with expertise in palliative care. She will answer your questions about how the palliative care approach can benefit people with PD and help improve your quality of life throughout the continuum of disease.\n \nJoin us and you will learn:\n• What is palliative care and what are its benefits?\n• When is a good time to start thinking about palliative care?\n• How can you obtain palliative care services?\n• What is the difference between palliative care and hospice?\n• What is an advanced directive and how do you implement one?\nAnd much more! \n
