How do I care for my brother who is interstate?

Hi Susan,

I’m sorry to hear about your brother’s stroke. Has he returned home?

Depending on the nature of the difficulties he experiences, there are range of supports available for you both. A case manager, for instance, may be able to support him ‘on the ground’. The emotional support and encouragement you would provide over the phone would also be invaluable.

We would be more than happy to chat about this further over the phone. Please feel free to ring us on StrokeLine 1800 787 653.

Best Wishes,

Lisa
