Dementia and Parkinson

My mom is having symptoms like not getting enough sleep, agitation and many other behavioural changes. I already refer to her oncologist about her changes and was told that she’s having parkinson and dementia. Back home, I studied a bit about it. My question is, how can I ensuring her stage is? What I really need to do now? Can Klinik Kesihatan do further examination? I really want to help my mom get through this. And my mom’s next appointment is 3 weeks from now. I don’t want to wait for next move.
