Hospital to home
______________________
Support for Nelson and Marlborough based people affected by stroke returning home from hospital.
Returning to live at home after a stroke can be a challenging and anxious experience for everyone involved. Our webinars provide practical information and advice in a supportive and realistic way on how to cope with the challenges of life after stroke.
Information will be provided by DHB clinical advisors and Stroke Foundation staff. Each session will allow time for questions to be asked related to anything about stroke and recovery.
Anyone who has experienced a stroke or is a family member or carer is welcome to attend.
Webinars start in May 2023 and take place every second Monday (except Labour Day) from 10.30am – 11.30am.
