Course Overview

The PDSAFE: Physiotherapy and Falls Prevention in Parkinson's training is a six-week online course. This course has been developed and offered by the Universities of Southampton and Exeter and delivered through the FutureLearn platform. Victoria Goodwin, Sarah (Sallie) Lamb, and Ann Ashburn are the instructors for this online course.

Falling is a common and disabling complication of Parkinson's disease that poses a significant health crisis for physiotherapists. It also has a significant adverse effect on the everyday lives of those who suffer from the condition. According to current evidence, Parkinson's fall prevention treatment should take a multi-dimensional approach that includes exercises, falls preventative measures, and functional practice. This was confirmed by the latest PDSAFE clinical trial, which investigated the most recent personalized treatment for Parkinson's patients with mobility and stability issues.
