about Parkinsons?
If you enjoy speaking to groups of people,
are able to follow a scripted presentation and
would like to help make a difference to
the care given to people with Parkinsons,
the Parkinsons UK Volunteer Educator
role may be of interest to you.
Volunteer Educators are trained to deliver
free one hour courses to staff working in
nursing and care homes and home care
agencies. The course provides a solid
introduction to Parkinsons and enables the
staff to learn more about symptoms and how
they may affect people, how the condition
can be managed, including the role of
Parkinsons medication and its side effects,
and how staff can best care for someone
living with the condition.
You may have Parkinsons, care (or have
cared) for someone with Parkinsons
or perhaps have a special interest in
the condition and would like to support
Parkinsons UK in educating the care
workforce. On going training and support is
provided with this volunteering role.
