Parkinson’s is a chronic and progressive motor system disorder that can cause shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty walking. With time, it can cause cognitive issues, behavioral problems, and dementia.

Get around and take care of your house - without losing your balance?

Remember your medications, because there are so many of them?

Stay happy because you feel isolated and misunderstood?

Connect with others because you’re ashamed of not being able to perform like you used to?

Responsible, professional and devoted. “My father has Parkinson’s and he was living alone. He could no longer be in the kitchen because of the shaking – it was dangerous. Preferred sent us an aide, and we’re very happy: he is responsible, professional, and devoted. He really understands my father’s needs.”
