Enhancing the role of the social network in activity (re)engagement post-stroke: a focus group study with rehabilitation professionals

CONCLUSIONS: Strategies to involve the social network of people post-stroke are not fully implemented. Although identifying members of a social network should begin during inpatient rehabilitation, the main part of actively engaging the network will have to take place when the people post-stroke return home. Implementing social network strategies requires a systematic process focusing on collaboration, knowledge, attitude, and skill development.PMID:36397003 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-022-01897-3
