Podcast: Excellence in Huntington’s Disease Care
In advance of this year’s Huntington’s Disease Education Day, Oct. 26 at UConn Health, Dr. Shakaib Khan and Robin Zingales-Browne from UConn Health’s Huntington’s Disease Program, join the UConn Health Pulse podcast to discuss that event, what’s involved in providing care and support to those touched by Huntington’s Disease, and the journey to UConn Health’s designation as a Center of Excellence from the Huntington’s Disease Society of America.
I think I’ve learned more from [our Huntington’s Disease support group] than any book I’ve read on Huntington’s, because these are the people that are living it and they can teach the other people who attend some strategies of how to survive the challenges that come with this disease.
