While In Hospital

You will be looked after by a team who specialise in dealing with people who had a stroke.

Team members include Doctors, Nurses, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Therapists, and Dieticians. You will also meet the Stroke Coordinator who will be happy to discuss any aspect of your care, provide written information and ensure that you are being seen by the appropriate therapists.

Discharge from hospital will depend on your recovery and is a team decision based on your progress. A referral to Social Services is likely to be made to ensure any help or equipment needed at home is identified and provided. Your medical care is handed over to your GP upon your discharge from hospital. It is to your GP thet you need go for all aspects of your care.
