Access to specialized Parkinson\u2019s care is often not available in a timely fashion. Other health services that improve the quality of life for both patients and caregivers can be limited.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople with Parkinson\u2019s often suffer from complex physical and non-motor health disorders, which can affect the whole family. We know that caregivers are heavily burdened, financially and emotionally. Our mission is to help close the gap for them and build awareness of Parkinson\u2019s disease,\u201d says <strong>Joyce Gordon, CEO<\/strong> of Parkinson Canada.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Survey Highlights <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Limited access and long wait times: <\/strong>2 out of 10 waited more than one year for a diagnosis; 3 in 5 came to Parkinson Canada or one of its support groups, for additional information.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Caregivers are burdened: <\/strong>more than 1 in 4 caregivers have full-time jobs while taking care of a loved one; 4 in 5 are married or living with their partner.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mental health: <\/strong>4 in 10 people surveyed with Parkinson\u2019s report experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, and loss of confidence.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Financial burden: <\/strong>4 in 10 agree that it is difficult to pay for health care bills relating to Parkinson\u2019s disease, like medication, exercise, physiotherapy, and specialized services such as speech therapy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important that individuals receive a correct diagnosis as early as possible and have adequate access to ongoing specialized care. Even this care is limited and follow-up visits are too far apart,\u201d adds <strong>Dr. David Grimes<\/strong>, lead author of the<em> Canadian Guidelines on Parkinson\u2019s Disease<\/em> and Head, Division of Neurology, The Ottawa Hospital. \u201cIf the survey shows that Canadians are experiencing considerable gaps and delays to care, this hinders health care professionals from effectively recommending treatments and lifestyle changes that would help patients better manage the disease.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This month is <strong>Parkinson Awareness Month <\/strong>and we share the results with governments and other stakeholders, in order to raise awareness of these gaps in care.\u00a0 The organization continues to advocate for improved access and reduced wait times. The organization will further share these results with the general public and donors, to seek more support.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/archiveparkinson.thedev.ca\/about-us\/national-volunteer-week\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1595 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/parkinsonpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/National-Volunteer-Week-Tombstone-Ad_websize.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"385\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archiveparkinson.thedev.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/National-Volunteer-Week-Tombstone-Ad_websize.jpg 385w, https:\/\/archiveparkinson.thedev.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/National-Volunteer-Week-Tombstone-Ad_websize-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/archiveparkinson.thedev.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/National-Volunteer-Week-Tombstone-Ad_websize-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/archiveparkinson.thedev.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/National-Volunteer-Week-Tombstone-Ad_websize-100x133.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 385px) 100vw, 385px\" \/><\/a>Additional investment is needed for exceptional research, to provide programs and services for people living with Parkinson\u2019s, and to provide educational opportunities and resources for health care professionals.<\/p>\n<p>With more than 25 people newly diagnosed each day in Canada, the demand for Parkinson Canada services and those of the health care system are increasing dramatically.
