#27 Caring for a Loved One with Cognitive Impairment and Psychosis of Parkinson's disease (Interview with Caregiver Sharon)
Manage episode 323549501 series 2856796
One of the greatest challenges for a caregiver of a loved one with Parkinson's disease is managing episodes of psychosis.
On today's episode, I interview a caregiver named Sharon. Sharon is a caregiver for her husband with a 14 year history of PD. In the recent years, he has experienced a decline in cognitive function as well as episodes of psychosis that included visual and tactile hallucinations as well as delusional thoughts. Sharon shares some of these experiences with us and explains how she handled the episodes. She offers great advice for all caregivers not only witnessing psychotic episodes but also cognitive decline.
