Summary
This pilot study tests whether a home-based program called HOBSCOTCH, originally designed for epilepsy, can be adapted for people with Parkinson's disease. Ten participants will work one-on-one with a coach in nine virtual sessions to learn problem-solving strategies and memory aids. The goal is to see if the program is feasible and can improve quality of life and cognitive function.
