A stroke care team at a care home typically includes nurses, therapists, and other healthcare professionals who have experience and training in stroke care. They work together to create a personalized care plan that addresses the specific needs of the stroke survivor. The care plan may include physical therapy to help with mobility and strength, occupational therapy to help with daily tasks and activities, and speech therapy to help with communication and swallowing.

In addition to providing therapy and rehabilitation, the care team also provides support with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and grooming. They also monitor the stroke survivor’s health and manage any medications or medical equipment that they may need.

The care home also provides emotional support to the stroke survivors and their families. They understand that stroke recovery can be a difficult and emotional process and they provide counseling and support groups to help them cope with the changes in their lives.

It’s important to note that not all care homes are equipped to provide stroke care, so it’s important to research and find a care home that has experience and specialized training in stroke care. It’s also worth noting that stroke care at a care home can be covered by Medicaid, long-term care insurance, and veterans benefits.
