Long-Term Parkinson's Care for Seniors in Hyattsville, Cheverly, Chillum, and Nearby Cities

Degenerative disorders of the neurological system, such as Parkinson's disease, cause rigidity and impair mobility. Even while Parkinson's symptoms are mild at first, they become more difficult for elderly persons with advanced illness to do even the most basic manual chores. The majority of patients eventually need round-the-clock support from loved ones or in-home caregivers as the disease advances.

The early symptoms of Parkinson's disease, after a diagnosis, could be mild. But as the disease advances, your loved one's ability to move about and think clearly will deteriorate.

Some of the most common symptoms include:

• Frequent, recurring tremors
• Slow but gradual decline in mobility
• Balance issues
• Depression and anxiety accompanied by a sleeping disorder
• Lack of comprehension and delusions

Dementia, which often manifests as irritation and perplexing or terrifying hallucinations, may also occur in seniors with advanced or late-stage Parkinson's disease.
