title: Supporting people with Parkinson's in later life.
abstract: Parkinson's in old age can be a complex individual condition that affects physical and psychological function and wellbeing. As a result, the needs of different people may vary. However, all older people with Parkinson's will benefit from access to a specialist, comprehensive old-age assessment and nursing care that understands how symptoms can affect health and wellbeing, and is responsive to the individual's particular requirements over time.
