Parkinson's Disease Home Care
Having someone you love with Parkinson’s disease is hard. And no matter how much you love the person, the one thing that you will need is elderly live-in care for them.
But even with live-in care, you still need to know about the things that you can do for the elderly who have Parkinson’s. These are some of the information and things you can do for your loved one.
What is Parkinson’s disease?
Parkinson’s Disease is a condition that affects the brain and nervous system. It can cause shaking, rigid muscles, difficulty walking or moving, slow movements, and more. The elderly are most susceptible to Parkinson's as it generally develops when people reach their 60s. Parkinson's disease is a degenerative neurological disorder that affects one in 100 people. And, when your loved one has an illness, it isn’t something that will go away. And, there will come a time that they will need 24/7 live-in care.
Taking Home Care for Parkinson Disease
It’s important to know how to properly care at home for these patients. This is to make life easier for them and you. Here are some tips for caring for someone with Parkinson's:
Be patient
There will be times when your loved one needs help but refuses to ask you for it. Be kind and understanding; this is a tough time in their life! If you aren’t patient anymore, it might be time to call an elder care agency.
Keep them active
Exercise has been shown to reduce the symptoms of Parkinson's Disease, so encourage your loved one to do things they enjoy such as gardening or going on long walks around the neighborhood. The more they move, the slower the disease will progress, and they will feel much better after a walk. If you struggle, you can get some live-in care UK for assistance during the day.
Make sure they are eating right
Parkinson's patients often have difficulty with swallowing. Make sure your loved one is drinking enough fluids to stay hydrated and make their food easier for them to chew on. Make sure that you don’t give food that they can choke on. This happens way too often.
Keep track of what medicines they need
Ask the doctor which drugs will help control symptoms, but also be aware that some medications can worsen Parkinson's. And, keep the medicine out of reach of the patient. Don’t rely on them to take their medication themselves. It’s better to control the medicine yourself.Parkinson’s disease is a disease that your parents might start struggling with. And, even if you can assist them with their day-to-day care, there is some specialized care that you can’t do yourself. This is why many professionals are recommending that you still get some elderly live-in care that will assist you when you aren’t at home. But, the tips we mentioned are also essential to remember so that you can take good care of your Parkinson’s parents.
