During our January webinar, "Parkinson's Psychosis:
Hallucinations and Delusions," Dr. Alison Dixon discussed
causes, triggers and management & communication strategies for
hallucinations and delusions. We also explored how Parkinson's
psychosis can impact the mental health of both the person with
Parkinson's and their care partners, potentially leading to
withdrawal from support networks and, for some, affecting whether and
how they seek medical care. We heard from Nini Huang about the
challenges of caring for two parents living with Parkinson's
and her mother's episodes of delusions, and management
strategies they use to stay safe and connected as a family.
