SPECIALIZED PARKINSON’S CARE
Team members at The Birches are trained in the Struthers Parkinson’s Center TULIPS (Time, Understanding, quality of Life, Increased awareness, Pills on time, and Support) program. The training modules simulate the symptoms of Parkinson’s to help give team members a better understanding of living with this disease. They also learn the causes, common symptoms, current treatment options, and how to best care for someone with Parkinson’s. The end result is increased empathy and understanding of how to help each resident living with Parkinson’s maintain their independence.
