Specialist Parkinson\u2019s support at home<\/h2>\n \n

Our person-centred home care can minimise the disruption of a Parkinson\u2019s diagnosis.<\/p>\n \n \n

Parkinson\u2019s is a life-changing condition, but being diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s doesn\u2019t mark the end of an individual\u2019s life. At Helping Hands, we offer compassionate, nursing-led Parkinson\u2019s care in the comfort of your own home.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019d benefit from a few hours of support a week to help during the early phase of the condition, or more comprehensive care at the\u00a0palliative<\/a>, complex stages of Parkinson\u2019s \u2013 we can help.<\/p>\n

Parkinson\u2019s progressively impacts part of the brain, and leads to a number of symptoms that are difficult to manage, such as:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n

    What is the aim of Parkinson\u2019s care?<\/h2>\n \n

    Parkinson\u2019s care helps you to manage your symptoms and live your life to the fullest.<\/p>\n \n \n

    Whilst we know that there is no recognised cure for Parkinson\u2019s, the main purpose of a Parkinson\u2019s carer is to help slow down the progression of your symptoms and allow you to manage them.<\/p>\n

    Parkinson\u2019s care also focuses on supporting the physical, practical and emotional needs of the customer and the wider family. Parkinson\u2019s is a condition that can impact mental health, often in the form of anxiety or depression, which is why we adopt a truly holistic approach to the support that we provide.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
