Parkinson’s home care

• Stay at home with routines and surroundings that support wellbeing
• Support from carers experienced in Parkinson’s symptoms and progression
• Reliable medication support at the right times
• Reduced fall risk and safer mobility at home
• Peace of mind for family members

Parkinson’s home care is professional, paid support delivered in your own home, designed around the physical, emotional, and practical challenges of Parkinson’s disease.

Care is personalised and may include:

• Assistance with mobility, transfers, and balance
• Timely medication support
• Personal care and daily routines
• Meal preparation and household tasks
• Companionship and emotional reassurance

Support can increase gradually as needs change, without the disruption of moving into residential care.

Home care may be suitable if:

• You want to continue living at home
• Symptoms are affecting mobility or daily routines
• Medication timing is becoming difficult to manage
• Family carers need regular or full-time support

It may not be suitable if:

• Needs require constant clinical supervision in a hospital setting
• The home environment cannot be adapted safely

A care adviser can help you assess this clearly and honestly.

Visiting Parkinson’s care
Planned visits for personal care, medication support, meals or mobility assistance. Suitable for earlier-stage Parkinson’s or when family carers are still involved.

Live-in Parkinson’s care
A dedicated live-in carer provides 24-hour support, including night-time assistance, medication routines and rapid response to freezing or mobility issues.

Nursing-led Parkinson’s care
For more complex needs, with clinical oversight and coordination with healthcare professionals.

Respite care
Short-term care to give family carers time to rest, recover or manage other commitments.

Home care

• Remain in familiar surroundings
• One-to-one personalised support
• Flexible routines and meal times
• Greater continuity and independence

Care homes

• Shared staff and schedules
• Relocation and adjustment required
• Less personalised day-to-day care

Many families choose home care to avoid the disruption of moving while still ensuring safety and support.

Mobility & falls prevention: Safe transfers, walking support, and home safety awareness

Medication routines: Ensuring doses are taken on time to maintain symptom control

Personal care: Respectful support with washing, dressing, and continence

Sleep & night-time support: Reassurance during restlessness or confusion

Emotional well-being: Consistent companionship and understanding care

Live-in care may be appropriate if you notice:

• Frequent falls or freezing episodes
• Missed or delayed medication
• Night-time confusion or wandering
• Increasing exhaustion for family carers

Having a carer in the home ensures support is always available, day and night.

Parkinson’s home care can be:

• Self-funded
• Partially funded by local authorities following a care assessment

Our care team can help you understand likely costs and funding routes.

• Clinically led care model
• Experienced, vetted Parkinson’s carers
