We hypothesize that a telenursing service may improve the management of motor and non-motor symptoms of patients in everyday life. We explore this hypothesis here by presenting the case history of a PD patient who experienced a marked reduction in number of falls and less discomfort due to hallucinations through telenursing. The patient and PDNS of the telenursing service never physically met but were in contact 13 times by telephone over a period of three months: once at enrollment, once at the 3-month follow-up interview (to better prepare the upcoming outpatient visit to the neurologist), two structured discussions about hallucinations ("triage protocol", including management advice), three structured triage protocols about FOG, and six unstructured calls for marital issues, sense of guilt, and acceptance of the disease.	./cache/cord-314088-ktj17dvq.txt	./txt/cord-314088-ktj17dvq.txt
