If you need to spend a night in the hospital have a go bag ready with several doses of your meds like sinemet, that are taken more often than am noon pm. most hospitals have a nursing rotation that does not coincide with med times as often as pwp need them. hospitals also typicallly have you surrender your meds to the nursing staff. have some extra emergency doses handy that you can take if the nursing rotation/med times arent punctual to your pd needs. this is a recommendation i got from the parkinsons foundation. they used to send pd folks upon request a free hospittal survival kit for pwp. Research has found that three out of four people with Parkinson’s do not receive medications on time when staying in the hospital, and that when this occurs two out of three will experience unnecessary complications. parkinson.org/Living-with-P...
its called Aware in Care hospital kit from the parkinsons foundation.
