The Parkinson's Foundation Tennessee and Kentucky Chapter and the Murfreesboro Parkinson's support group will host the first ever Hospital Care Partner Workshop.
Parkinson's is the fastest growing neurological disease in the word.
At this time there is no cure for Parkinson's. Middle Tennessee has more than 8,000 Parkinson's patients who are currently receiving treatment. It is estimated another 16,000 or more are suffering untreated because of the difficulty of getting a proper diagnosis. This event is designed to take Parkinson's patient care partners on a step by step process through the new Parkinson's Foundation "Hospital Safety Guide." to help them prepare for a hospital visit, whether planned or unplanned.
The event will take place Saturday March 23rd from 9:30a-12 noon at the North Blvd. Church of Christ West Campus located at 4950 Burnt Knob Road. The event is free but registration is required and includes a light breakfast alongside the Hospital Safety Guide.
