Abstract

Date Presented 3/31/2017

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a complex chronic condition that requires daily self-management to maintain health, function, and quality of life. This study investigated a generic self-management program with people with PD. Results will inform the development of a PD-specific self-management program.
