Free Hospitalization Kit
For Parkinson’s patients, any medical setback is a major setback — especially if they have to be hospitalized. In the hospital, 3 out of 4 Parkinson’s patients do not get their medications on time — and 61% of them had major complications because of it. Fortunately, the National Parkinson’s Foundation has a free kit to help PD families plan and prepare for both unplanned (emergency) and planned hospital stays.
