UAMS To Start Free Exercise Program For People With Parkinson’s
The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences has received two grants totaling almost $29,000 to launch a free exercise program for people with Parkinson’s disease and Parkinsonism.
The Parkinson’s Foundation provided $13,924.59 to train, staff and support the program, and the Philip R. Jonsson Foundation of Little Rock provided $15,000 for the equipment.
“Treating Parkinson’s disease involves treating the whole person, and that means going beyond what we can accomplish during a clinical visit,” said Rohit Dhall, M.D., director of Neurodegenerative Disorders in the UAMS Department of Neurology. “I am so happy that the central Arkansas Parkinson’s community will be able to benefit from this evidence-based, high-quality exercise program — all free of charge.” MORE
