Fostering Purpose in Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson’s: Clinical Strategies with LSVT BIG® and LSVT LOUD®
In recognition of Lewy Body Dementia Awareness Month, this webinar invites speech-language pathologists, physical therapists, and occupational therapists to explore how to help patients living with Lewy body dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and related neurological conditions maintain a sense of purpose through daily life. Learn how evidence-based interventions like LSVT BIG and LSVT LOUD can support functional independence, communication, and meaningful engagement. We’ll discuss strategies for translating these therapies into individualized care plans that empower patients to continue participating in activities that matter to them - whether hobbies, social interactions, volunteer work, or other personally significant pursuits. By focusing on purposeful living, allied health professionals can help patients preserve confidence, autonomy, and quality of life - turning therapy into a tool for meaningful, empowered engagement beyond diagnosis. Intended Audience: Physical and occupational therapy professionals and students; speech-language pathology professionals and students
