Experiences of participating in a client-centred ADL intervention after stroke.

CONCLUSION: The intervention contributed to transparency, which appeared to enable and support the client's sense of ownership of daily activities and rehabilitation after stroke. Implications for rehabiliation A client-centred activities of daily living intervention seems to contribute to transparency, where persons with stroke can discover and understand their new ability and situation after stroke. A client-centred rehabilitation situation seems to enable clients to actively engage in their own rehabilitation process. Inviting clients to participate in goal-setting seems to be important in order to create the experience of transparency. Creating continuity in the therapeutic alliance seems to be important in order for the clients to feel trust and experience agency in everyday life. PMID: 29961346 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
