We recognise the unique challenges this condition presents and are committed to delivering compassionate, professional care that promotes independence and enhances quality of life.

Medication Management:

For individuals with Parkinson’s disease, the timing of medication is crucial to managing symptoms and ensuring daily functionality. Our carers are thoroughly trained to understand the importance of medication schedules and are vigilant in administering them on time. This careful management helps our clients stay as active and comfortable as possible.

Addressing Rigidity and Freezing Episodes:

Parkinson’s disease often presents symptoms such as muscle rigidity and freezing episodes, which can hinder mobility and lead to frustration or falls. Our carers are equipped with strategies to overcome these challenges, including:

Gentle Movements for Easing Rigidity:

Assisting individuals during freezing episodes, especially when they occur in doorways or hallways, where people may feel as though their feet are stuck to the floor. Our carers guide clients through these moments with tailored techniques to improve mobility and reduce fall risks.

Improving Posture and Movement:

A common characteristic of Parkinson’s disease is the tendency to develop a flexed posture, which can impact mobility and overall quality of life. At Great Life Care Ltd, our carers focus on encouraging extension exercises and activities. By promoting upright posture and active movement, we help slow the progression of the condition and enhance overall functionality.

Our Approach:

At Great Life Care Ltd, we don’t just focus on physical symptoms—we aim to provide holistic support. Our carers are trained to understand the complexities of Parkinson’s disease, offering encouragement, compassion, and tailored strategies that empower individuals to live their lives to the fullest.

 

With Great Life Care Ltd, you’re never alone in your journey with Parkinson’s. We’re here to support you every step of the way, ensuring safety, comfort, and dignity.
