UPDATE ON PARKINSON’S NURSE SPECIALIST (PDNS) SERVICE.

Parkinson’s nurse working hours will be over 3 days working Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays 8.30-16.30. 

For advice on your Parkinson’s that you feel cannot wait until your next scheduled appointment, you can contact PDNS voicemail (01896 827025) leaving your name, DOB and a brief reason for your call and if appropriate you will be allocated the next available telephone review appointment which will be sent out in the post.  If the call is not Parkinson’s related you may get a call to contact a more appropriate health care professional.

This is not an emergency service. If you require urgent advice, please contact your GP or out of hours service on 111.

General advice on Parkinson’s can also be obtained through Parkinson’s UK on 08088000303 or www.parkinsons.org.uk
