Multi-disciplinary Rehabilitation Program for Advanced Parkinson's Patients in the Community

The present study examines the effectiveness of the rehabilitation program in the framework of the "Ezra LeMarpeh" project for Parkinson's patients. The Ezra LeMarpeh Association, founded by Rabbi A. E. Firer, provides assistance to the sick and needy. The site features a wide range of advanced, high quality rehabilitation devices, a unique hydrotherapy pool and associated accessories that enable the staff to provide the finest quality and most professional treatment. Before entering a rehabilitative program, each participant will arrive independently at the Ezra LeMarpeh Center for evaluation tests and will undergo comprehensive evaluation tests by the center's physiotherapist, including walking tests, balance tests, filling out questionnaires to assess Quality of life and disease severity. At the end of the program, the participants will be asked to repeat evaluation tests.
