Summary
This study tested a program where older Latino adults with Parkinson's disease paired up with a peer partner for 8 weeks. They used activity trackers, watched educational videos, and attended online exercise classes together. The goal was to see if this approach was practical and could improve physical activity, motivation, and mood. The study was small (10 participants) and focused on feasibility, not on curing the disease.
