National Reach, Local Touch Volume 36 Issue 8 August 2016 Research Round Up: The Future of Neurology-Driven Palliative Care Programs Janis Miyasaki, MD, Director of Movement Disorders Program, University of Alberta Palliative care often gets confused with hospice care. It is incorrectly associated with imminent death. Palliative care programs consist of a team of experts who provide symptom and pain management, spiritual care and medical support to people with serious illnesses, like Parkinson’s. People with PD can seek palliative care at any stage and often find relief in symptom management when they do. “Supportive and palliative care for Parkinson’s disease, and other neurologic disorders, is here to stay,” Dr. Miyasaki said. She believes that the future of the palliative care field will be shaped by the increase of health practitioners who are earning dual certification in palliative care and neurology. Due to the rate of people aging, the potential population for supportive and palliative care neurology services will increase. The term palliative care is evolving. Due to a more positive connotation, the terms comfort care, symptom management or supportive care are becoming widely used instead. While people who enroll in palliative care programs can have a debilitating disease like cancer, dementia, congestive heart failure and kidney disease, these programs can also be well suited to help people with PD. While palliative care programs in the United States are not neurology-driven, they exist to help people improve physically, emotionally and spiritually. They can also be beneficial for the caregiver. Most insurance plans cover all or part of palliative care programs in the United States.

Back page Cleveland Rolls Out 1st Ever Moving Day® By Laura Gasbarro, Moving Day® Cleveland Coordinator Cleveland has seen so many firsts during 2016. The first ever NBA championship, the first RNC convention and the first ever Moving Day® Cleveland walk for PD. On a beautiful Saturday afternoon, June 18, more than 775 walkers converged on Wade Oval in University Circle for Cleveland’s first version of Moving Day® which is the National Parkinson Foundation’s (NPF) signature walk event. It offers an exciting, empowering opportunity for persons with Parkinson’s disease (PD), families, friends, companies and organizations to raise significant funds to support comprehensive patient care programs and research. It’s a highly visible way to generate awareness for PD. Over 75 teams registered to participate and helped Cleveland’s walk raise a whopping $146,237 to date. This success could not have been possible without the support of our national and local sponsors. Thank you to Lundbeck, Orig3n, Right at Home, and US WorldMeds. Locally, we were excited and privileged to be supported by University Hospitals, The Evenor Fund, Parker Hannifin, Baker Hostetler, Vista Springs, and UCB. Thank you also to our honorary chair, Tim Tolman-player/ personnel advisor for the Cleveland Indians and to the Cleveland Indians for their support. Many thanks to all of the vendors who came out to support the event and our media sponsors WVIZ, 107.3 The Wave and Northeast Ohio Boomer and Beyond magazine.

The dynamic committee was led by Amy Greenwell and NPF Ohio Board member Bill Perdan. The committee’s original goal was $100,000. But that feat was met 2 weeks before the event. We have now exceeded the goal by almost $50,000. And it is never too late to donate – go to www.movingdaycleveland. org and make a final donation to this year’s Moving Day® Cleveland walk. We are just about $3500 from reaching the $150,000 mark! Monies raised from Moving Day’s all across the country are used to support the free services provided by NPF to all Parkinson patients, as well as for local community grants for PD programming. So your donation, in part, will support Northeast Ohio PD programs! Moving Day® is an annual event, so we will plan to see you all next year. This September, the 2017 Moving Day plans will be posted on the web site. Remember to go to www.movingdaycleveland.org and register your team early!

Order a free copy at www.parkinson.org/store Over the course of seven newsletters, we will share seven important needs of caregivers and encourage you to focus on managing your own needs in addition to the needs of your loved one. • • • • Need #5: Your Relationship with the person with Parkinson’s Maintain open communication When conversing, remove or turn off loud and distracting noises Express love and appreciation as well as concerns and feelings of frustration. Don’t let those feelings transform into resentments Share special time together apart from caregiving tasks • • Have forgetfulness and difficulty with retrieval of learned information Have embarrassment with motor changes that are prohibiting them from forming words Understanding some of those common changes is a start. From there caregivers must be mindful of their communication style and adjust as their loved one’s PD progresses. Reviewing some cognitive and communication changes that someone with PD may experience as the disease progresses, your loved one might: • • • Have difficulty concentrating or expressing thoughts in a timely manner Have difficulty finding the “right” words Have difficulty following a conversation with numerous people in a room talking The Thornville Backwoods Fest www.thornvillebackwoodsfest.com The Backwoods Festival is a threeday event featuring over 300 arts and crafts vendors, more than 30 different kinds of food and 3 days of bluegrass music. This year, the Fest will be held September 16-18. Saturday the 18th will feature their annual Live Auction. The proceeds from the Auction are donated to a nonprofit, and for the second year in a row, National Parkinson Foundation Ohio will benefit! Please consider coming out to support the auction, which begins at 2pm. See you there! 4 Dance for Parkinson’s: Circulation, Stretching, and Strengthening By Miriam King; Part Two of a Three Part Summer Series Remember to always warm up before you start dance, or any form of exercise! These dance-based exercises may be done seated or standing and can be modified to fit your own movement range. For more of a challenge, try adding small weights to the “front swing” exercise, or trying the “closed /open hand pulses” while in a lunge or leg stretch. Don’t forget to put on some of your favorite music to motivate you while you stay active. This should provide a nice stretch in the back of your calf. If the stretch is too much try shortening your stance and if you do not feel anything try moving the back foot farther behind you. Closed/open hand pulses The goal of this motion is to increase circulation in the fingers, hands and arms. Although the pictures demonstrate doing this exercise seated, if you’d like more of a challenge try it while standing, walking, or even paired with your favorite leg stretch! With arms extended to the side, tighten your hands into fists, then open your fingers as wide as possible. Repeat this closed fist, open hand motion at a fast pace, as you raise your arms above your head. Start with at least 20 quick fist/open hand pulses, but do as many repetitions as you can without straining your hands or arms. Front Swings Standing with one hand resting on the back of a chair, extend one arm up next to your ear. Take a deep inhale and as you exhale, let the extended arm swing down next to your hip. As your arm moves down allow your body to move with it, bending the knees and curling over. Then bring the arm back up and uncurl your body to return to standing. This should create a swinging motion that is a nice whole body warm up, and allows you to practice shifting your weight and strengthening the legs. The goal is to repeat these swings at least eight times, then turn around to repeat on the other side. Calf stretch Working to keep your spine elongated, place one foot flat on the ground behind you and place your hands on the back of a chair. Paying careful attention to the position of your hips, and the alignment of your knee and ankle, bend the front leg and shift your weight forward as you press your back heel into the ground. Then switch legs and repeat on the other side, at least five times. 5 Support Group Programs for August & September 2016 Please contact the facilitors listed to confirm the meeting is still being held.
