Falls/Parkinsons: Specialized rehabilitation to help residents recover safely and move forward with confidence.

Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson disease is a progressive neurological condition that affects movement, balance, and coordination, as well as important daily functions such as speech and swallowing.

Over time, individuals may experience changes in walking, posture, strength, fine motor control, voice volume or clarity, safe swallowing, and overall endurance, along with fatigue and changes in thinking or mood. Parkinson’s affects each person differently and progresses at an individual pace, but it can gradually make everyday activities—such as dressing, eating, communicating, and moving safely—more challenging.

With our coordinated nursing care and specialized rehabilitation services, individuals with Parkinson’s can maintain function, independence, and quality of life throughout the course of the disease. Our experienced clinical team supports mobility, safety, communication, respiratory health, and nutrition needs as care evolves.
