  2. Parkinson's is a progressive neurological disease that affects movement and can cause tremors, rigidity, imbalance of body proportions, etc. As time passes, these symptoms can worsen and affect daily living. Building a Safe and Restorative Environment People with Parkinson's are at risk for falls and other accidents, so safety is the most important aspect. In the text below are suggestions to help make your home as safe and secure as it can be. When family comes to visit, you need to clear pathways by rugs and cords that can be a tripping hazard. ● Add Grab Bars: in the bathroom and some other inclined to danger places. ● Proper Lighting: It is very important to have adequate lighting in hallways and stairwells. When you create a safer environment, your loved one is less likely to have an accident, and they can take pride in doing things more on their own. Getting Them Moving Physical exercise is good for Parkinson's. Mobility, flexibility, and overall wellbeing will be greatly improved. ● Gentle Exercises: Encourage walking, stretching, and yoga as forms of daily physical activity. ● Supervised Activities: Utilize Intergenerational Programs, where your loved one can participate in activities that involve them moving their body and socializing.
