My Stroke Journey resource: what do you think?
In 2013, the National Stroke Foundation launched My Stroke Journey, an information pack given to survivors and carers immediately after a stroke. We worked with hospitals to get My Stroke Journey out there and now have over 160 hospitals providing it to their patients. The pack provides information on stroke and its treatment, which we know is important as most stroke survivors and carers have little knowledge of stroke before the event. My Stroke Journey is designed to support survivors and carers through the initial crisis, as well as providing them with a road map for long-term recovery. We are currently reviewing My Stroke Journey, and plan to launch a new version in 2016. We are looking for stroke survivors and carers to provide their views on My Stroke Journey. You may have received it during your hospital stay, but even if you didn’t, we’d love to know what you think. If you are interested in being involved, please let us know by email and we will get in touch to hear your views.
