Abstrakt: A newly updated non-oral treatment pathway for people with Parkinson's who have complex needs provides clear, instructive guidance on identifying, assessing, treating and managing individuals on these therapies. While specialists provide much of the care within these pathways, district and community nurses are essential to ensure that patients progressing to more complex phases of the condition are identified and referred for specialist assessment, as well as being instrumental in the monitoring and ongoing management required once a new therapy is in place.
