My Stroke Journey Recovery Map

The My Stroke Recovery Journey Map is a visual representation of the stroke recovery journey. 

 

It is a tool intended to be used by:

  • Persons with stroke and their family/care partners to ensure their voice is heard and directs their recovery  journey
  • Health care providers to incorporate into their practice and communication with their patients ensuring best practice as well as patient centred collaboration for the most successful outcomes

It is designed to:

  • Support a conversation at any point along the continuum about next steps in navigating the road ahead
  • Illustrate that stroke recovery is different for everyone
  • Provide teaching about the overall stroke journey
  • Support goal setting conversations
  • Reinforce that recovery takes time and continues beyond the inpatient phase of care. It is intended to reinforce hope and that there is life after stroke.

Post-Stroke Checklist See Post Stroke Checklist

This post-stroke checklist has been developed to help health care providers identify post-stroke problems.

This PSC is a brief and easy-to-use tool, intended to be completed with the patient and with the help of a care partner, if necessary.

This checklist provides a standardized approach for the identification of long-term problems in stroke survivors and facilitates appropriate referrals for treatment.
