title: [Nursing care and services for people with Parkinson's disease in nursing homes. An explorative review].
abstract: Actual demographic developments and the incurability of Parkinson's disease force the care for the elderly to establish specialised concepts and methods for residents who suffer from this disease. Based on an explorative literature review the current empirical knowledge concerning the care for persons with Parkinson's disease has been compiled. Overall it became visible that topics like care for patients with Parkinson's disease have been increasingly considered in scientific literature during the recent years, but there is still a lack of scientific studies which focus on the field of care for the elderly.
