Positive Life: Self-advocacy in hospital settings

Online Session via Zoom
Session
16 Jul 2025 (Wed) 12:00am to 17 Jul 2025 (Thu) 12:00am
Navigating a hospital stay can be particularly complex for individuals living with Parkinson’s, this Positive Life aims to equip you with clear, practical information and strategies to confidently advocate for yourself or your loved one in a hospital environment.

By understanding your rights, needs, and options, you’ll feel more prepared and supported during what can otherwise be a stressful and uncertain experience.

Please note: This Positive Life session replaces the previously announced “Positive Life: Navigating health care – staying safe in hospital” originally scheduled for 9 July. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this rescheduling may have caused and appreciate your understanding.
