A qualitative study of Singaporean perspectives on returning to work after stroke

CONCLUSION: RTW after stroke is complex and influenced by personal and environmental factors. Our findings suggest that individuals with stroke need continuing support to overcome stigma and discrimination, to manage expectations of their recovery process, and to better navigate resources during their RTW process in Singapore. We recommend future studies to design and test the feasibility of appropriate interventions based on our proposed strategies to better support individuals with stroke to return to work.PMID:36641709 | DOI:10.3233/WOR-211170
