"When I became aware of the Parkinson Care Series, it was purchased and we systematically educated staff, making it a requirement for ALL departments. The Parkinson Care Series has greatly assisted our clinical and non-clinical staff, improving the care we provide to the Parkinson population in our residence, day care and outpatient programs. I highly recommend its use to improve the care being provided to those with Parkinson's." Tony Joseph, Administrator, Presbyterian Homes of Central New York
" In a rehabilitation hospital where our mission is to get people back to the highest quality of life, the Parkinson Care Series has been an instrumental training tool for our staff. The materials are easy to understand and were designed to educate a broad range of clinical and non-clinical staff." Kristen DeHart, Chief Executive Officer, Mid-America Rehabilitation Hospital
"I became interested in becoming the Parkinson Educator for our facility because my father-in-law has stage IV Parkinson's disease. Never did I imagine when I started this journey that it would become my passion. The staff thought the series was GREAT! Our speech pathologist had experienced "freezing" with some of his patients but had no idea what it was or how to help. I have recently joined our local Parkinson's support group board. I have prepared health education packets for our patients in the rehab hospital and support group members, have a local neurologist involved, started a free speech class, and look forward to each month's meetings. Thank you to the Parkinson Foundation of the Heartland for developing the Parkinson Care Series." Deb Wetta, RN BSN, Wesley Rehabilitation Hospital
" The Parkinson Care Series is a great training tool for in-home care professionals and has enabled them to reach out to the Parkinson population and provide optimal care. Comfort Keepers highly recommends its use to improve the quality of care being provided for those afflicted with Parkinson's disease. Mary Ellen Rohrbaugh, Director of Network Development, Comfort Keepers Franchising, Inc.
As a facility we have enjoyed the video series and the instrumental education it has provided so that we may better treat our patients who have Parkinson's disease. Moreover, the educational materials provided with the series on CD ROM have been a great resource that we can share with our patients and family members. Thanks for this opportunity!
