This webinar addresses the correlation between social isolation and abuse of older adults, types of abuse and people involved, and strategies to deal with abuse. We discuss the importance of staying connected to others through brainstorming community resources, and viewing a short video depicting a fictional story of social isolation and elder abuse.
We welcome all individuals with Parkinson's to this webinar as well as their spouses and/or carepartners/caregivers as they may benefit from learning more about this topic to assist in supporting their loved one.
