Pines of Sarasota Education & Training Institute expands its education offerings with the release of its new DVD and online video, titled: “Practical Tips for Better Living with Parkinson’s Disease.” Produced in partnership with neurologist Dean Sutherland, MD, PhD, and occupational therapist Teepa Snow, MS, OTR/L, FAOTA, this new program is an educational toolkit for those affected by Parkinson’s disease. In the first workshop, Dr. Sutherland provides the medical foundation necessary to understand what happens in the brain, who is at risk, how it is diagnosed and which medications or treatments might be helpful. In the second workshop, internationally renowned trainer Teepa Snow offers practical techniques to empower caregivers. Using physical and visual cues, caregivers learn how to help a person with PD to overcome freezing, improve walking through rhythm or how to assist in transferring from standing to sitting without fear or stress. Pines of Sarasota Education & Training Institute is the educational department of not-for-profit Pines of Sarasota Rehabilitation and Senior Care Community, providing cutting-edge, specialized education, outreach programs, support and resources to family members and geriatric caregivers.
