Stroke care focuses on the rehabilitation, support, and management of individuals who have suffered a stroke. Strokes can cause a range of physical, emotional, and cognitive challenges, including weakness, speech difficulties, and memory issues. Home-based stroke care provides a comfortable and familiar environment for recovery, combining professional assistance with a personalised approach to meet each patient’s unique needs.

This type of care may involve a multidisciplinary team, including physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, and skilled nurses, all working together to help the patient achieve their recovery goals.
