Parkinson’s Support Group Meets at Hannan House

By on February 8, 2013 in Health and Medical, Resources

I wanted to share with you that there is a Parkinson’s Support Group that meets at Hannan House. It is both for individuals with Parkinson’s and their caregivers or loved ones. Please contact the facilitator below if you have interested members/residents. This is a very good group that has been meeting for a number of years. They are always open to new members and are facilitated by a wonderful social worker.

 

Sincerely,

Rachel
