A Custom Approach to Care for Parkinson’s Disease at Village Crossing

Parkinson’s disease affects everyone differently. Our skilled Parkinson’s care team meets you where you are in your journey and adapts every aspect of daily life to address your unique needs. Care begins with a custom-designed personal care plan created specifically for you. This plan is developed by a coordinated care team consisting of a physician or nurse practitioner, nutritionist, psychiatric nurse practitioner and caregivers.

Once the plan is in place, our physical and occupational therapists and movement specialists will support you in improving mobility, function, posture, gait, balance, speech, and fine motor skills and maintaining them at the highest possible level. We also work to reduce rigidity and tremors.

Expert Care, Tailored to You

At Village Crossing, you benefit from a team dedicated to cutting-edge, specialized care. Our therapists are certified in LSVT BIG®, a proven program to help individuals with Parkinson’s disease reclaim their independence and confidence. We also have access to therapists who are certified in LSVT LOUD® speech treatment. 

LSVT BIG®: Moving with Purpose:

• Improve your mobility
  Our certified therapists guide you through personalized LSVT BIG® exercises, strengthening both “small motor” tasks like buttoning a shirt and “large motor” skills like walking and balancing.
• Recalibrate your movements
  This program helps you regain awareness of your movements, allowing you to perform them with greater confidence and control.
• See the difference, regardless of stage
  LSVT BIG® effectively caters to individuals at all stages of Parkinson’s, promoting functional improvement and a renewed sense of possibility.

LSVT LOUD®: Finding Your Voice:

• Speak with clarity
  Certified therapists equip you with LSVT LOUD® techniques, enhancing your vocal volume and ensuring your voice is heard.
• Reclaim your confidence in communication
  By “recalibrating” your perception of your own voice, you can connect more effectively with loved ones and participate fully in life’s conversations.
• Empowerment through clear communication
  LSVT LOUD® empowers you to express yourself with confidence and participate actively in your world.

Move Your Body, Empower Your Life

At Village Crossing, we incorporate physical movement into your overall care plan. We integrate purposeful exercise into your daily routine, not just as a therapy session, but as a key way to:

• Combat symptoms
  Regular physical activity, led by our experienced physical and occupational therapists, helps manage tremor, rigidity, and balance issues, improving your overall well-being.
• Boost your brainpower
  Exercise isn’t just for your body; it strengthens your cognitive function, enhancing memory, focus, and daily decision-making.
• Find independence in movement
  Our easily accessible gym and personalized exercise plans, supported by caring staff, equip you with the tools and confidence to move more freely and independently.

Unleashing the Power of Food and Nourishing Your Body

We understand that food is more than fuel; it’s a powerful tool for managing Parkinson’s disease. That’s why we offer a nutritional approach as unique and supportive as your journey.

Deliciously Tailored Nourishment:

• Expert Guidance
  Our team of registered dietitians and nutritionists develop personalized meal plans based on your specific needs and preferences.
• Flavorful Variety
  We believe good food and good health go hand-in-hand! Our experienced dining director creates delicious menus featuring fresh, seasonal ingredients and a variety of cuisines to impress your taste buds.
• Informed Choices
  We empower you with knowledge. We openly discuss why certain foods can be beneficial or pose challenges for your specific condition, giving you the tools to make informed choices at every meal.

• Personalized Therapy
  Our experienced therapists tailor individual and group therapy sessions to address the specific mental health challenges you may face, including depression, anxiety, and adjustment issues.
