  • Resource utilization questionnaire

    3 months

  • Objective Caregiving Burden

  • +19 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

occupational therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

10 weeks occupational therapy according to a protocol (OTiP protocol) based on the Dutch guidelines of occupational therapy in Parkinson's disease

Behavioral: Occupational Therapy

No occupational therapy

NO INTERVENTION

Patients and their caregivers in the control group will have no occupational therapy intervention until their last measurement has taken place (6 months).

Interventions

Patients in the experimental group will receive 10 weeks (maximum 16 hours) occupational therapy according to a treatment protocol, which is based on the Dutch evidence based guideline for occupational therapy in Parkinson's Disease and refined for this study.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease
  • Indication for referral to occupational therapy
  • Home dwelling
  • Available for informal support minimal two times a week to a patient who participates in the study
  • Available to take part in the intervention

You may not qualify if:

  • Not capable of completing the self assessment forms (i.e. due to language problems or severe cognitive problems\_MMSE score \< 24).
  • Co morbidity with symptoms that interfere with actively taking part in the intervention (e.g psychosis, severe heart condition). Or limitations in activities are dominated by the co morbid condition rather than by Parkinson's Disease.
  • Current participation in other allied health research (i.e. PARKFIT)
  • Having received occupational therapy intervention in the last 3 months
