Young-onset Parkinson's disease: a guide to care and support
Abstract
One in seven people diagnosed with Parkinson's disease will be aged less than 50 years. The medical management of young-onset Parkinson's disease is complicated and a multidisciplinary approach to care is vital to meet the psychological, emotional and social needs of people with Parkinson's disease and their carers.
