When we hear the word “rehab,” what do we think of first? Some might think of a place where addicts go to get clean. Others might think of traumatic injuries sustained in an accident and the road to recovery. And still others might think of the place you go after a hospital stay of any length.

In this episode, we will focus on rehab or rehabilitation for People with Parkinson’s no matter what the reason for which you were admitted to the facility. However, the principles we discuss are basically the same for any illness or injury. Rehab is the process of helping an individual achieve the highest level of function, independence, and quality of life possible. Rehabilitation does not reverse or undo the damage caused by disease or trauma, but rather helps restore the individual to optimal health, functioning, and well-being.

Let’s find out more and some specifics. This episode is for everyone. Best to understand it before you need it.
