New social enterprise set to lead to significant improvements in stroke rehabilitation

December 20, 2013 by

A program to help stroke survivors become more involved in their rehabilitation has been launched as a social enterprise. As well as helping patients manage the physical challenges they face, it encourages them to set personal targets to boost their confidence and lets them take charge of their rehabilitation. The initiative, already rolled out across the UK and New Zealand, has the potential to help greater numbers of stroke survivors realize their own resourcefulness and be less reliant on medical and rehab support once they are discharged from hospital.
