Life after a stroke?
I'm so sorry to hear that this happened to your family, and thank you for the excellent question. A severe stroke can impact your entire family in a number of ways.

Although, the goal is to keep patients at home where they are most comfortable, there are some situations where a physiatrist might recommend a higher level of care such as home health, acute inpatient rehabilitation, or a skilled nursing facility for some period of time. I hope that was helpful for you and anyone else struggling with the same thing. READ MORE
