Supporting Loved Ones with Parkinson’s Disease at Home
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, coordination, and balance. It most commonly affects older adults and can gradually impact a person's ability to manage everyday tasks. While a Parkinson’s diagnosis can be overwhelming, compassionate and consistent in-home care can make a meaningful difference in maintaining quality of life.
At Care and Comfort, LLC, we work closely with families across Santa Clara County to provide supportive, personalized care for individuals living with Parkinson’s.
What Is Parkinson’s Disease?
Parkinson’s disease occurs when the brain’s dopamine-producing neurons begin to deteriorate. This affects a person’s ability to control movements and can lead to symptoms such as:
Tremors (shaking in the hands, arms, legs, or face)
Stiff muscles or limbs
Slowed movements (bradykinesia)
Balance problems and frequent falls
Speech or swallowing difficulties
Fatigue, depression, or changes in cognition
Symptoms may vary, and while there is currently no cure, treatments and support can help individuals live full, independent lives for many years.
How In-Home Care Helps Individuals with Parkinson’s
In-home care allows people with Parkinson’s to remain in a familiar environment while receiving help with daily routines and specialized support. Our caregivers are trained to assist with:
Mobility and fall prevention
Meal preparation and feeding assistance
Medication reminders
Personal hygiene and bathing support
Emotional companionship and encouragement
Coordination with physical and occupational therapy routines
As Parkinson’s progresses, care needs may change. We work with families and healthcare providers to adapt our care plans accordingly.
