When I was first diagnosed, I found it difficult to treat a patient with #Parkinsons as I didn’t want to see how I might progress with time.
I now see that I have a unique responsibility to ensure that they are looked after as best as they can be in all UK ED’s

It’s been a dream since being diagnosed myself back in 2016 to increase the quality of care for people arriving to Emergency Departments who are living with #Parkinsons
33 ED’s have signed up in the first 24 hrs.
