Physician's Guide
If you're a caregiver and you haven't yet gotten a copy of the Physician's Guide to the Management of Huntington's Disease, you really should get yourself a copy. While you might find it a useful resource, it's invaluable for medical professionals who don't regularly work with Huntington's Disease patients.
If your loved one is in assisted-living or long-term-care, give a copy to the administrator. Same goes for any in-home assistance you may have, physical or occupational therapists, speech pathologists, general practitioners, psychiatrists, psychologists, or social workers. You'd be surprised at how many will actually read it. It makes their life easier, as well as yours.
You can either order a hard copy from HDSA (click here) or you can download a copy in PDF form from the Huntington's Society of Canada (http://www.hsc-ca.org/english/pdf/Physicians_Guide.pdf).
