When a stroke occurs, the most common question a survivor asks is whether they could recover.
The post-stroke rehabilitation journey can take months or years, and even a lifetime.
Therefore, each stroke survivor must adjust to the new normal in order to recover and, more often, relearn certain bodily functions and abilities.
What is the cause of stroke? What factors determine the location and severity of brain damage caused by a stroke? How could a life be saved during a stroke? Is the damage and recovery all by chance? Are there factors that determine how long it takes to recover? Would there be a full recovery? Optimal recovery outcomes depend on collaboration between the survivor and the interdisciplinary stroke team.
Individual healthcare professionals take different roles and approaches at different stages of the recovery journey.
The independent disciplines are working dependently and cohesively to design the rehabilitation program tailored to each individual survivor.
The quality stroke care skills of individual practitioners can be sharpened by understanding how different healthcare disciplines apply knowledge, which can promote the successful recovery of a stroke patient.
