This was brought to my attention from another site. Some members may have an EP in their exercise program. As the result of the recent inquiry of NDIA this was developed. Please take time to read, participate if you can. The NDIA is trying to remove this and other therapies from Plans. It may affect aged care pages down the track...

21/8/25.
Our monthly meeting was today, and it was attended by over 30 members. There was a talk by the speech therapist from Sound Abilities. They are located on Bribie Island. She discusses the two programs that people who have parkinson can benefit from. She also talked about dental hygiene, swallowing, and how important it was to maintain this as it prevents aspiration pneumonia.
If you haven't done so complete the survey from the Parkinson Alliance. This was sent members last month. CHECK your spam folder. The information that is gathered will help Parkinson Qld get additional funding. Qld Parkinson currently receives no Government funding.
We look forward to see you at the morning tea at Lisa's Willow Tree on the 2nd Thursday. And out meeting in September 11th
