In fact, there are specific interventions to help support clear speech that have been developed just for people with Parkinson’s and proven through decades of clinical trials to be effective.During this interactive presentation, Jessica Vanasse, who is a Speech Language Pathologist or (speech and swallow therapist) in the Outpatient Rehabilitation Clinic at Legacy Salmon Creek, will explain:How Parkinson's Disease can impact your swallow function and what you can do about itWhat treatment options are available to support communication engagement across the stages of the disease processHow you can be proactive in addressing changes in swallowing, communication and thinking skillsWhat "LSVT" (Lee Silverman Voice Therapy) is and whether it might work for youJessica will also lead the group in practicing a number of exercises that have been shown to be effective treatment options.This in-person talk will be held on Thursday, May 22nd, at 4:00 p.m. on the Legacy Salmon Creek Campus.PRO's Mike Mulligan, Community Health & Education Coordinator will be facilitating this event.
