Parkinson’s Disease Care
The Park Nicollet Struthers Parkinson’s Center is a recognized leader in Parkinson’s care, education and support, and we are proud to be a part of the Struthers Parkinson’s Care Network. Since 2013, this care network has brought the expertise of Struthers to Lyngblomsten’s continuum of care.
This relationship gives us additional insight into the complexities of Parkinson ’s Disease symptoms through advanced training and ongoing education. Through this training from Struthers, our staff can better recognize and understand the complex and often-changing symptoms of Parkinson’s, leading to enhanced communication and care. In addition, our staff members have received specialized training in medication management and falls prevention.
We also offer education, resources, and support for patients and their families.
