How Parkinson’s Disease Impacts Daily Living

Parkinson’s is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, balance, and coordination. Over time, symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and changes in speech can make once-simple daily tasks increasingly difficult.

For many families in Chaska, Eden Prairie, Chanhassen, Victoria, and nearby communities, supporting a loved one with Parkinson’s can become overwhelming without the right help.

Common challenges among individuals living with Parkinson's include:

• Difficulty with walking and mobility
• Increased risk of falls
• Trouble with eating and swallowing
• Changes in sleep patterns and mood
• Fatigue and difficulty completing tasks independently

Compassionate Support

We’ve seen firsthand how consistent, compassionate care can make a meaningful difference for individuals living with Parkinson’s Disease. One Chaska family shared:

“Our dad’s tremors had worsened and he was having frequent falls. The Visiting Angels caregiver was so patient and calm, helping him walk with more confidence and providing conversation that made his days brighter. We truly couldn’t have done it without them.”

While everyone's story is different, our goal is always the same: to make daily life safer, more comfortable, and more fulfilling for seniors living with Parkinson’s disease.
