• Is Parkinson's care at home what I need?

  A neurological condition like Parkinson’s is life changing, as more parts of the brain are impacted it can lead to a number of symptoms that can be difficult to deal with alone. This can include memory problems, tremors and loss of smell. Having Parkinson’s care at home can provide the necessary levels of support to maintain your daily routine and improve your quality of life.

• How much care will I need?

  In the early stages of your condition, it may be that only a small amount of assistance is required from our Parkinson’s carers, while in the later stages you may require longer periods of care. We will work with you and your clinical team from the earlier stages to the more advanced stages of Parkinson’s to ensure you are receiving the necessary levels of support.

• Is Parkinson's curable?

  At present there is no cure for Parkinson’s, but there are multiple therapies and treatments that will allow you to live with Parkinson’s on a day to day basis. Home Instead can work alongside your clinical team to ensure you are receiving any necessary treatment or therapy as part of your care.

• Does Parkinson's disable you?

For the majority of people the condition will take years to reach a point where it has a serious impact on your daily life, with even mild symptoms taking years to show after a diagnosis.
