My 94-year-old father has Parkinson's -- late onset -- he wasn't diagnosed until he was 88. He is in an assisted-living facility, and I am his primary caregiver. COVID-19 has caused facilities to make some hard decisions; family members can't enter the facility my dad is in. It is so difficult not be able to help him with all kinds of tasks of daily living, knowing that he is lonely and I am missing what may be my last years/months with him. My dad has begun to have mild hallucinations which don't seem to be medication related as there have been no changes to his medication. One doctor recommended Nuplazid, but his neurologist doesn't think it is necessary yet. Does anyone have experiences with this drug?
