🍓 Overview
My Stroke Guide connects you with others through our online community and provides you with information, aphasia friendly resources and support, 24/7.
My Stroke Guide was originally launched in 2014, since then it has evolved into a website that houses free access to reliable health information regarding all aspects of stroke, such as risk factors, secondary conditions, guidance on how to improve health and mental wellbeing, understanding stroke and its effects and a page specifically for families and friends on what to expect, including questions to ask when leaving the hospital and how to help to care for your loved one.
We have over 200 videos on the physical and mental effects of stroke, living well after stroke (recovery) and practical things to think about like finance, driving and adapting your home. Many also share their lived experiences of stroke as a survivor, carer and/or health professional.
We would like the content that we produce to be as varied and diverse as our users. We are looking to grow and diversify our content with themes focusing more on exploring food and diet after a stroke, using ingredients from different cultures and featuring chefs with a stroke understanding/background.
The My Stroke Guide community is comprised of people of all ages, backgrounds, cultures, and creeds. We want them to feel more empowered when they view our content and to raise awareness of the challenges they face in their stroke recovery.
