We believe in empowering individuals and encouraging a sense of control in their own care.
Understanding Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s is a progressive neurological condition that affects the brain’s ability to produce dopamine, the chemical that helps control movement and mood. Symptoms develop gradually and tend to worsen over time. Most people are diagnosed around the age of 65, though Parkinson’s can affect younger people, too.
Who is Parkinson’s disease care at home for?
Parkinson’s home care is built for adults living with Parkinson’s disease who need support to manage daily life at home. If your loved one is struggling with movement, personal care, medication or mood changes, professional care at home can make a meaningful difference.
Our home care for Parkinson’s patients is suitable for those in the early stages who need occasional support, as well as those with more advanced needs who require regular daily assistance. Care is available across our service areas in Essex, Chelmsford, Suffolk and Halstead.
Reaching out for care early can make a world of difference and give your family peace of mind.
