Comments from our Accredited Providers
"Thanks so much for all the help with the Parkinson Care Series. I was the Parkinson's educator for HealthSouth Cane Creek in Martin, TN. This was a great series! We had the entire Neuro team as well as physicians take this course. We feel it has helped our education with the Parkinson's population and we are now better able to handle this diagnosis. Thanks again! I plan on offering this to our new therapists in the fall." Lori Manley, DCS HealthSouth Cane Creek
