Versailles Health Care Center is pleased to invite the community to its monthly event for people with Parkinson’s Disease and their families! Power Over Parkinson’s meets monthly to empower, socialize, and learn. This month, we are looking forward to learning from our guest speaker, Chris Sheridan, BSN, RN. He is a Duopa RN Specialist with AbbVie, the makers of Duopa. He will be sharing his presentation entitled “Patient Partner Program: Getting to Know Duopa” with the group. The presentation will include an educational introduction of Duopa: 1) what is Duopa; 2) how Duopa is used; 3) important safety information; 4) what a “day in the life” might look like for a person using Duopa; and 5) introduction of a patient partner, who is a person with Parkinson’s disease who is on Duopa therapy.
The Power Over Parkinson’s session will be led by Shannon Condon, Facility Rehab Director and Speech Therapist, and Gina Boerger, Physical Therapist. The Power Over Parkinson’s group will take place Wednesday, February 8 at 4 pm. It will be held at Versailles Health Care Center. This is a FREE meeting. Light snacks and beverages will be provided. For more information or to RSVP, please call Shannon at 937.526.0130.
