Stroke Recovery Along the Continuum of Care

EPISODE TITLE: Stroke Recovery Along the Continuum of Care

EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode of NOGGINS & NEURONS: Brain Injury Recovery Simplified, we talk with D’Youville University students, Hannah Waring and Madison Mendofik, and their professor, Tracy Bentley-Root about the continuum of care in brain injury recovery. We covered a wide variety of topics, including:

• Levels of care and typical expectations for survivors, care partners and clinician
• The knowing factor that clinicians use when determining discharge recommendations
• The role of insurance in the US
• Dismantling the subacute rehab stigma
• Including survivors in their care
• The value of the survivors’ lived (subjective) experiences
• How education helps increase client and care partner confidence
• Improving education content and delivery by healthcare providers
• Accepting one’s career learning path being a process of continued growth
• Collaborative care, assessments and interventions along the continuum of care
