Self Directed Stations for the Stroke Patient

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Stroke

In brief

Early initiation of therapy post stroke has been associated with improved long-term outcomes, and functional activity dose during the first week of inpatient rehabilitation predicts both gait velocity at discharge and length of time to independent walking. The primary study objective is to pilot the feasibility of integrating a patient-directed activity program into inpatient rehabilitation following stroke. The second study objective is to identify if participation in the patient-directed activity program improves functional ability and health related quality of life.
