Daily living equipment
This information looks at what is available, and how it may help you with everyday tasks.
Parkinson’s is different for everyone and what suits one person may not suit another. Equipment can also be expensive and is not always the answer to a person’s needs.
Always get advice from an occupational therapist if you think a piece of equipment may be helpful. A physiotherapist, speech and language therapist or Parkinson’s nurse may also be able to recommend something based on your needs.
Getting around:
Grab rails and handrails for stairs or walls
Personal care:
Personal emergency alarms and monitors
