My Stroke Journey now available in easy English
My Stroke Journey was developed by Stroke Foundation in close consultation with people who’ve suffered a stroke, their families and health professionals and was first launched in 2013.
Currently 250 acute, rehabilitation and community rehabilitation sites utilise My Stroke Journey across Australia – reaching around 70 percent of all stroke patients.
It empowers people to take control of their own stroke recovery and care. My Stroke Journey brings together information on the different types of stroke, causes impacts on family and friends, details on the hospital process, health services available, risks of having another stroke and information for carers and family. The resource also features advice and reflection from stroke survivors who have ‘been there’ to guide new stroke patients on their journey.
