May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a vital time to support the mental well-being of those living with Parkinson's and their caregivers. Many experience depression, anxiety, and isolation, which can often be overlooked. Caregivers also face emotional challenges, leading to burnout and stress. It's essential to prioritize mental health as part of overall care. Let’s raise awareness and encourage open conversations about mental well-being in the Parkinson's community.

Already a delicate balance, Parkinson’s symptom management can be even trickier in the hospital because:

🚶 People often do not get enough movement opportunities.
⏱️ Parkinson’s medications may not be given following the at-home schedule.
💊 Medications that worsen PD are sometimes prescribed.
🚫 PD medication doses are often delayed or missed.

These 5 Hospital Care Needs outline the importance adhering to Parkinson’s guidelines during planned or unplanned hospital stays. Learn more for Patient Safety Awareness Week by ordering or downloading your free Hospital Safety Guide: Parkinson.org/HospitalSafety
