Multidisciplinary Care to Optimize Functional Mobility in Parkinson Disease.

This review elaborates on multidisciplinary care for persons living with Parkinson disease by using gait and balance impairments as an example of a treatable target that typically necessitates an integrated approach by a range of different and complementary professional disciplines. Using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health model as a framework, the authors discuss the assessment and multidisciplinary management of reduced functional mobility due to gait and balance impairments. By doing so, they highlight the complex interplay between motor and nonmotor symptoms, and their influence on rehabilitation. They outline how multidisciplinary care for Parkinson disease can be organized.
