VERSAILLES HEALTH CARE CENTER OFFERS TREATMENT PROGRAMS TO PROVIDE THE BEST QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THOSE LIVING WITH PARKINSON’S

Versailles Health Care Center offers LSVT BIG and LOUD treatment programs to provide the best quality of life for those living with Parkinson ’s disease. These treatment programs are unique certified treatment protocols that are considered the “gold standard” in treating disorders for people with Parkinson’s. Each LSVT BIG and LOUD program is individualized for the patient’s specific needs. The LSVT BIG program addresses safe walking, balance, and trunk rotation. The LSVT LOUD program addresses soft, mumbled, monotone, and hoarse vocal quality. The LSVT BIG and LOUD programs are each four sessions per week for four weeks. BIG sessions are approximately 60 minutes and LOUD sessions are 30-60 minutes.

According to Gina Boerger, Physical Therapist at Versailles Health Care Center, “We are the leaders in our area for our Parkinson’s treatment programs and we were the first to start the programs locally four years ago. We are unique in that our BIG and LOUD treatment programs are one-on-one with a consistent certified therapist, who creates an individualized plan specific to each patient’s individual needs.”

Upon completion of the programs, each patient is given a success DVD that features his/her before and after performance. “Our therapy programs are successful with all levels of ability. Our therapy team makes a difference and works to provide the best quality of life for their patients living with Parkinson’s,” said Kristy Earick, Administrator at Versailles Health Care Center.
