After Stroke Care at Home

After Care for Stroke

A stroke can have varying effects depending on its severity and how quickly it is spotted and treated. What happens after a stroke varies from person to person. Some people can have TIAs (also known as mini-strokes) with minimal side effects whilst severe strokes can cause paralysis or mobility issues, problems with speech, swallowing and continence as well as emotional effects such as anxiety, depression and mood swings.

Adjusting to life after a stroke can be difficult for both the person who has experienced the stroke and their family. Suddenly and unexpectedly, someone can lose mobility, speech, memory and even a change in personality which can be a lot to come to terms with, not to mention both physically and mentally demanding for both parties.

It is important that there is respite for a family carer for their own mental wellbeing. As much as we love and want to care for our family – regular breaks are important to help you maintain the healthiest relationship and avoid tension and resentment. At Novus Care, our after stroke care at home service can provide this additional help or allow someone to continue to work on a short-term or long-term basis

Post Stroke Care at Home

Recovery after a stroke can be a long difficult process but with the right care and commitment to rehabilitation there can be improvements and even a full recovery depending on age and severity of the stroke. Following hospital care, if you’re considering nursing for stroke patients at home then we can help as we can continue post stroke care at home with a highly experienced specialist carer.

It’s understandable that many people want to return to their own home and familiar surroundings after a stroke and to some resemblance of normality. Our homecare after stroke service can provide you with the familiarity you need to rehabilitate back to your normal life and work on your mobility around your own home. Your rehabilitation therapy will usually consist of appointments such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and language therapy.
