STROKE CARE
We know that your own home is the best place to recuperate,
relearn skills and adapt to any physical limitations resulting from
a stroke, with the right care and support.
Our approach to supporting stroke recovery, recognises the limitations that a person may be
needing to adjust to and live with. We know that your own home is the best place to recuperate,
relearn skills and adapt to any physical limitations resulting from a stroke, with the right
care and support.
Our carers are trained to understand the problems you may experience with mobility and
will support all your needs - everything from assistance with walking and moving around, helping
with personal care through to supporting you to remain active with social activities in and out of
the home. We know that muscle weakness following a stroke can cause on-going pain and our
carers are trained to proactively and effectively manage medications to ensure you are able to live
life as pain free as possible. Our dedicated OT can support with the purchasing of equipment and
developing an exercise programme that will improve mobility and independence.
