A growing condition
The World Health Organization reports that more than 8.5 million people worldwide live with Parkinson’s disease, and that the number has roughly doubled over the past 25 years. While there is no cure, consistent therapy and support meaningfully improve quality of life and slow the loss of function.
Physiotherapy and movement
Regular physiotherapy is one of the most effective tools in Parkinson’s care — it maintains mobility, balance, and strength, reduces stiffness, and lowers the risk of falls. A physiotherapist can design and run a tailored program in the home.
Why medication timing matters
Parkinson’s medication works best on a precise schedule, and doses taken late can cause a sudden loss of mobility. A home nurse helps keep the timing exact and watches for side effects — doses should never be changed without the doctor.
Keeping the home safe
Small changes reduce the high fall risk in Parkinson’s:
- Clear walkways and remove loose rugs
- Add grab bars and ensure good lighting
- Use a firm chair with arms for sitting and standing
- Choose supportive, non-slip footwear
- Allow extra time — never rush movement
