THE ROLE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF HOME REHABILITATION IN THE PROCESS OF PATIENTS' RECOVERY AFTER STROKE

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that stroke holds a leading position among the causes of long-term disability in the adult population worldwide, leaving about half of surviving patients with severe physical and cognitive impairments. In the context of the current trend toward shortening the duration of hospital treatment, the functional recovery process is often incomplete at the time of discharge, which shifts the primary burden of rehabilitation to the home environment. The first three months after a vascular catastrophe are critically important, as it is during this period that brain plasticity and the potential for functional reorganization are maximal. Organizing a multidisciplinary process at home allows for context-specific training in an environment familiar to the patient, proving highly clinically and economically effective compared to traditional care. The implementation of innovative approaches, such as home telerehabilitation and structured family support, opens new opportunities to minimize post-stroke disability and successfully return individuals to a fulfilling life.
