Holding it all together: Family caregivers’ support needs after very early supported discharge post stroke

This study underscores the need for sustained and comprehensive long-term strategies that include education and mental health support for caregivers in the rehabilitation process after stroke. Moreover, the integration of caregivers into rehabilitation is essential to ensure their preparedness and well-being. Such measures are crucial not only for reducing caregiver burden, but also for promoting better long-term outcomes for both caregivers and the person with stroke.
