Residential Care

Carehome.co.uk provides a search capability for homes that cater for Parkinson's disease. The link is set to New Forest and Parkinson's. Most (all?) homes cater for Parkinson's among a range of conditions including Huntingdon's, Alzheimer's etc.

Care Quality Commission provides a map showing location and rating. At Jan '17 the majority in the New Forest are rated good with one outstanding and a few in need of improvement  

The NHS has a full national list

Carehome.co.uk has a similar list to the UK

For searching Parkinson's^UK redirects you to Age UK who redirect you Elderly Accomodation Counsel but both Parkinson's and Age UK have advise pages on choice of home and why / when it's needed.
