Primary outcomePrimary: Change in Composite Score on Self-efficacy Scale — 38.5; 43 score on a scale
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if an interdisciplinary clinic can help people with Parkinson's disease care for themselves, improve their ability to follow recommended treatments, and have fewer problems like falls or visits to the emergency room.
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either care from the interdisciplinary clinic or standard neurological specialist care.
This study involves questionnaires both before and 3 months after participation in a one time interdisciplinary care clinic or standard care depending on which type of care the participant is randomized to. Participants will be in the study for up to 6 months. The study will end upon completion of questionnaires about 3 months after treatment with the interdisciplinary care clinic or standard care.
