This study was part of a larger project on community-dwelling PD patients’ coping and experiences with changes in care [15,16]. Between September 2013 and November 2014, 15 general practices in and around Nijmegen (the Netherlands) were asked to select patients that met the following criteria: a diagnosis of PD (established by a neurologist according to accepted criteria); community-dwelling; capable of handling a video camera with instructions; and no severe memory problems that the GP expected to interfere with retrospective interviewing [15]. A purposive sample of patients – based on age, gender and severity of PD according to Hoehn and Yahr (H&Y) [17] – was approached by their GP.
