Description
Current Treatment Strategies for Parkinson’s Disease
Study with Parkinson’s expert, John Dean, MA, CCC-SLP, as he shares the best practices for a comprehensive, team approach to treat Parkinson’s, in which rehab disciplines collaborate closely, dovetailing their expertise and scopes of practice in order to seamlessly integrate a cohesive treatment plan.
In addition, Mr. Dean will discuss core concepts for dual task treatment, combining movement and voice, as well as components to drive functional improvements in this population. You will learn how best to treat people with Parkinson’s who have undergone deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery, as well as those dealing with atypical diagnoses such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and corticobasal ganglionic degeneration (CBD). You will discover effective strategies and interventions to address this highly variable disease and teach your patients techniques they can utilize in their daily struggles with Parkinson’s.
