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'sUK 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.
