The complex nature of PD necessitates empowering patients to address their unique needs and challenges, fostering improved health outcomes and a better quality of life. Patient empowerment is a multifaceted concept crucial to enhancing healthcare outcomes, particularly in chronic conditions such as PD. However, defining patient empowerment presents challenges due to its varied interpretations across disciplines and individuals. Essential components include access to information, development of self-care skills, and fostering a supportive environment. Strategies for patient empowerment encompass health literacy, education, and shared decision-making within a trusted healthcare provider-patient relationship. In PD, patient empowerment is crucial due to the disease\u2019s phenotypic variability and subjective impact on quality of life. Patients must navigate individualized treatment plans and advocate for their needs, given the absence of objective markers of disease progression. Empowerment facilitates shared decision-making and enables patients to communicate their unique experiences and management goals effectively. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the dimensions and strategies associated with patient empowerment, its definition and the facilitators that are necessary, emphasizing its critical importance and relevance in Parkinson\u2019s management. At the end of this review is a personal perspective as one of the authors is a person with lived experience.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/jpd-230235","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,9]],"date-time":"2024-08-09T12:34:03Z","timestamp":1723206843000},"page":"S173-S180","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Patient Empowerment for Those Living with Parkinson\u2019s Disease"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Soania","family":"Mathur","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Global Alliance to End Parkinson\u2019s Disease (PD Avengers), Vancouver, BC, Canada"},{"name":"UnshakeableMD, Oshawa, ON, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sarika","family":"Mathur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Global Alliance to End Parkinson\u2019s Disease (PD Avengers), Vancouver, BC, Canada"},{"name":"Queens University, Kingston, ON, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref001","unstructured":"DorseyR, ShererT, OkunMS, et al.\n                      Ending Parkinson\u2019s disease: a prescription for action\n                      . 1st ed.
