Hi---on CARE we have had MUCH posting about dealing with hospitals and
preparing for PWP's hospitalization--I'm not sure what may have been
posted to the main list, but I can fwd to you plenty of material, if you
will tell me what particular aspect you are interested in---glad to do it !
Meanwhile, here's the info for getting the guide from Wil-Cope, which may
be what you saw on PIEN:
"Willamette-Columbia Parkinsonian Society of Oregon (Will Cope) now has "A
guide to caring for the Parkinson's patient" (FREE) to take with you wnen
you go to
the hospital. It describes the disease, characteristics of the disease,
complicating factors, advice to speak with nutrition consultant, neuro
advisory and a place for medication schedule. Also a Demerol alert for those
on Elderpry. Please give Will-Cope a call at . 1-800-485-7384.."
