Abstract
Background: Patient-centered care for persons with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is associated with positive outcomes, but is lacking in current healthcare systems.
Objective: In this qualitative study, we solicited advice from PwPD to medical professionals, family members/friends, and newly-diagnosed PwPD.
Methods: Through an online survey, 275 PwPD answered open-ended questions asking for their advice. Responses were analyzed using content analysis. Interrater reliability was 94.5%.
Results: Three qualitative themes were identified. First, participants advised enhancing care and communication, with healthcare professionals balancing clinical constraints with compassion, and family/friends balancing support with appreciating autonomy of PwPD. The second theme was empowering PwPD through increasing their knowledge of the disease and care options. The third reflected the importance of focusing on well-being and connection.
Conclusion: The results highlight several gaps in meeting the needs of PwPD in healthcare settings and personal relationships, underscoring the importance of integrating their perspectives in shaping approaches to care.
