Parkinson’s disease is a very serious disease of the nervous system that impacts muscles and affects body movements.  The initial symptoms of Parkinson’s are relatively mild, but they will become more severe with time as this disease is a degenerative condition.  The most common symptoms of Parkinson’s include tremors, shakiness, poor balance, stiff muscles, and difficulty speaking and these symptoms can make day-to-day life very difficult.  Those who are affected by Parkinson’s disease benefit greatly from receiving care from a licensed professional in their home.

Assisting Hands Home Care provides Parkinson’s home care services in Richardson, TX to help those affected by this disease.  We can provide complete home care that includes help with activities of daily living (ADLs) as well as help around the house to make it easier for those with Parkinson’s to live safely in their own homes.  We will work with you and your loved ones to create a personalized care plan that covers your loved one’s specific care needs.

Our caregivers are licensed, bonded, insured, and experienced when it comes to providing care for Parkinson’s patients.

Development of Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson’s Care Richardson, TexasParkinson’s disease is caused by the breakdown and death of nerve cells that produce dopamine.  The brain cannot function normally with such low levels of dopamine and its ability to regulate body movements is affected.  This is what leads to rigid muscles, slow movements, impaired posture, difficulty speaking, tremors, impaired balance, loss of automatic movements, and other symptoms of Parkinson’s.

The symptoms one develops from Parkinson’s will get worse with time as Parkinson’s is a degenerative disease.  The following are complications that many Parkinson’s patients experience:

  • Cognitive issues: Those in the later stages of Parkinson’s may experience general cognitive decline and dementia.
  • Depression: Fear, anxiety, and depression are common for Parkinson’s patients in the early stages.
  • Swallowing and eating issues: Loss of muscle control makes chewing and swallowing difficult which increases the risk of choking or malnutrition.
  • Sleeping problems: Parkinson’s patients may have difficulty sleeping and wake up frequently throughout the night.
  • Toileting issues: Parkinson’s patients may have difficulty urinating or controlling their bladder and they may also suffer from constipation due to slow digestion.
