Welcome to Thursdays@3 our regular series of conversations with people living and working at the end of life.
Today, on the back of Micheal J Fox taking to the stage with Coldplay at Glastonbury recently, we explore life and death with Parkinson’s Disease.
Sharing his experience is Victor McConvey, who is the Manager of Health, Clinical and Community Services at Fight Parkinson’s.
Victor is one of Australia’s most knowledgeable healthcare professionals on Parkinson’s care – a nursing career that spans 30 years, including 20 years as a Parkinson’s clinical nurse consultant, and in 2022 received an Order of Australia Medal for services to nursing and Parkinson’s.
