Self-assessments for care partners 

The well-being of care partners is important. If you’re stressed, struggling or not okay, it could impact your ability to be a care partner or even your health. Along with the guide are several self-assessment and planning tools for care partners to help manage your life and balance the needs of the person living with Parkinson’s. They’ll help you identify areas where you’re struggling and even build a routine. This can make managing your daily activities much more manageable. Thinking of looking for outside help to reduce your care burden? There are even questionnaires you can use when interviewing potential care providers to ensure the person living with Parkinson’s gets the level of care they need. 

Explore all the self-assessments and worksheets or use them individually to create a personalized caregiving toolkit.
