Specialist support to maintain independence, manage symptoms and enhance day-to-day wellbeing
Parkinson’s Disease is a progressive neurological condition that can affect mobility, balance, communication and confidence. As symptoms change over time, many people benefit from dependable, personalised support at home to help them live safely, comfortably and as independently as possible. At Rosemont Care, we offer compassionate, tailored Parkinson’s care across Essex, Kent and the surrounding areas, supporting both individuals and their families through every stage of the condition.
With extensive experience delivering high-quality home care, our dedicated Support Workers understand the challenges Parkinson’s can bring. We create bespoke care plans that adapt to your needs, routines and long-term goals — ensuring care that is dignified, empowering and completely centred on you.
Parkinson's Disease Symptoms
Parkinson’s Disease is a neurological condition that develops when cells in the brain responsible for producing dopamine begin to break down. Over time, this affects movement, coordination, and various cognitive and emotional functions.
Common symptoms include:
-
Tremors in one or both hands
-
Muscle stiffness or rigidity
-
Slow or reduced movement
-
Difficulty balancing or coordinating movements
-
Changes in facial expression, speech or handwriting
-
Fatigue, anxiety or depression
-
Sleep disturbances
-
Memory or cognitive changes as the condition progresses
Early support, ongoing monitoring and person-centred care can help manage symptoms effectively, reduce risk, and maintain independence at home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most cases of Parkinson’s are not inherited, though genetics can play a role in some instances. Having a close relative with the condition may slightly increase risk, but the majority of people diagnosed have no family history. Research suggests a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
Common symptoms include tremors, muscle stiffness, slow movement, balance issues, changes in speech, reduced facial expression, sleep disturbances, anxiety, depression and cognitive changes. Symptoms vary widely and may progress gradually over time, making ongoing support essential.
Providing care involves offering practical help with daily tasks, supporting mobility safely, assisting with medication routines, and creating a calm, structured environment. Emotional support, patience and encouragement also make a significant difference. Many families choose home-care services to ensure consistent professional support while maintaining independence at home.
