Following a stroke, individuals may experience physical, sensory, cognitive, behavioral and emotional impairments. When stroke patients do not receive adequate support for psychological effects of stroke, it can hinder recovery and reduce one’s motivation to pursue rehabilitation. An increased focus on psychological care following a stroke can improve one’s recovery and improve overall quality of life.
After this 60-minute webinar you will be able to:
- Define common neuropsychiatric symptoms that occur within different stroke syndromes
- Identify risk factors associated with post-stroke depression.
- Recognize factors that affect recovery from post-stroke depression.
- Describe interventions associated with psychological recovery and adjustment following stroke.
This presentation offers one hour of CEU accreditation from CCMC and CRC.
