A stroke is a life-changing event that occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, causing brain cells to die. While recovery can be challenging, with the right support team and tools, you can regain independence and quality of life. With Maslow on your team, you can manage your stroke recovery care & rehab all in one place!
Stroke recovery begins as soon as you're medically stable. Your rehabilitation team will typically include a neurologist, physio, occupational therapist, speech pathologist, rehab psychologist, and stroke nurse specialist. They work together to help you regain lost abilities and adapt to any lasting changes.
Stroke recovery focuses on neuroplasticity – your brain's ability to form new connections and pathways. Through consistent therapy and practice, you can retrain your brain to regain movement, speech, and cognitive abilities. Recovery looks different for everyone and progress happens at your own pace.
Transitioning home from hospital brings new challenges. You'll need to continue your therapy exercises, manage medications, coordinate multiple appointments, and communicate your needs to various carers and family members. It can feel overwhelming – that's okay! With the right tools and support, you can maintain your recovery momentum and continue making progress.
Maslow is great at playing the role of team manager. We can help manage your stroke recovery care & rehab all in one place by allowing you to:
Create detailed care routines with images and videos to help your carers understand exactly how to support you with daily activities and exercises.
Allow your therapists to create and send rehab programs that you can complete at home, with the ability to provide feedback on your progress.
Reduce the time spent explaining your needs to new carers by having all your care information organized and easily accessible in one place.
