In the early stages of Parkinson's disease, most elderly people don't exhibit any changes in behavior. However, when the disease worsens, it impairs mobility, and even day-to-day activities become challenging for the elderly. Your loved one will need expert care to remain in their own home safely if they have been diagnosed with this condition. Seniors in South Dayton and nearby cities are fortunate to have access to Visiting Angels' quality home care for those with Parkinson's disease.

What Does Parkinson’s Look Like?

There are over one million people in the United States living with Parkinson's disease; thus, knowing the signs is crucial to getting them the help they need.  Get in touch with a physician if you think a loved one is exhibiting symptoms of Parkinson's disease.  Symptoms may develop slowly at first but eventually become debilitating. 

Patients with Parkinson's disease often encounter the following symptoms:

• Frequent tremors or shaking of the feet or hands
• Mobility issues
• Trouble balancing
• Stiff limbs or body
• Hesitation before moving
• Lack of expression on their face

Navigating care for a loved one who is diagnosed with Parkinson’s or another cognitive illness can be stressful and overwhelming. Sometimes, it is hard to even begin searching for the care they need. Visiting Angels of South Dayton can help with our quality home care services.
