What is a Stroke

There are two primary types of stroke:
Ischemic Stroke: This type accounts for about 87% of all strokes and occurs when a blood vessel supplying blood to the brain becomes blocked, often by a blood clot.

Haemorrhagic Stroke: This type occurs when a blood vessel in the brain leaks or bursts. Haemorrhagic strokes can result from conditions like high blood pressure, overuse of anticoagulant medications, or aneurysms, which are weakened areas in the blood vessel walls.
Another related condition is a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), commonly known as a mini-stroke.

Rehabilitation at Home

Regaining independence is the primary key to stroke recovery, and there is nowhere better to achieve this than in the comfort of your own home with the assistance of family or trained and skilled live-in carer. Being familiar with your surroundings goes a long way to increasing your confidence and reducing your anxiety whilst trying to master the skills crucial to your rehabilitation. Adjusting to life after a stroke can be challenging. You might feel exhausted, anxious about the future, or frustrated by what has happened to you or your loved one.
