Current Treatment Strategies Parkinson’s Maladies

With Parkinson’s expert, John DeanCCC,, MA-SLP: He shares his best practices for a team-based, comprehensive approach to treating Parkinson’sIn which rehabilitation disciplines collaborate closely, they combine their expertise and scopes to seamlessly integrate a treatment plan.

Additionally, Mr. Dean We will be discussing core concepts of dual task treatment. This includes combining voice and movement, as well components that can drive functional improvements in this group. This course will teach you how to effectively treat people with autism. Parkinson’s Patients who have had deep brain stimulation (DBS), as well as patients with rare diagnoses, such as multiple system atrophy and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), as well as those who have had corticobasal or ganglionic dysfunction (CBD), are able to learn effective strategies and interventions. This highly variable disease will be addressed with effective strategies and interventions. You can also teach your patients techniques that they can use in everyday life. Parkinson’s.
