May is the National Stroke Awareness Month and the American Stroke Association/American Heart Association's American Stroke Month. Did you know that recent figures put stroke as affecting around 800,000 Americans each year? 2/3 of them receive inpatient medical rehabilitation as they recover; here's what that entails: https://bit.ly/3QJwDTr #StrokeMonth #InpatientMedicalRehab #HealthCare

At 34, Danielle Easley, a single mom of three, had a stroke. She was told by her medical team at the hospital that she would never walk, talk or be able to take care of herself again. Upon arrival at our rehabilitation hospital in Parkersburg, West Virginia, she couldn't do any of those things. She required a Hoyer lift to get out of bed and could not complete a simple task such as scratching her nose. With dedication and hard work, Danielle beat the odds. She never gave up and pushed herself beyond measure. Danielle was known by everyone at our hospital, even other patients. She was an inspiration to us all and the definition of success. At discharge, she proudly walked out of the hospital with a walker. We are so proud of you, Danielle! Thank you for trusting us with your care.

CAREGIVER PRACTICAL ADVICE Before your stroke survivor is discharged home you will need to discuss with them the following: A Model of Recovery. The Model that I am suggesting involves 3 distinct pillars including; Neuroplasticity, Patient Belief System, and Gold Standard Clinical Evidence. Their Motivations to Recover: Getting to think about what motivations are underlying you as a caregiver or your stroke survivor to carry out a physical home rehabilitation program in your own home. To assist you as a caregiver I am providing you with this FREE workbook that can be printed off and used with your stroke survivor.

As we journey on to raise awareness about stroke, we present three powerful narratives from patients and caregivers that underscore the profound importance of comprehensive stroke care. These stories are not merely accounts but stark reminders of the difference that timely and comprehensive stroke care can make. They reveal both the intense struggles and the remarkable journey in the recovery journey of stroke. Watch these narratives and understand why, a comprehensive care is not an option; but indeed a necessity.
