Perceived occupational balance in people with stroke.

Conclusion: These results demonstrate the importance of considering occupational balance in the rehabilitation of persons with stroke to support their engagement in a variety of meaningful activities that contribute to health. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Rehabilitation need to support persons with stroke to monitor their entire patterns of activities and perceived balance to support wider engagement in meaningful activities and promote health. Balance between all kinds of activities in daily life besides work, needs to be considered in the later phase of rehabilitation in persons with stroke. A majority of the participants with stroke in this study disagreed that they had a satisfying level of occupational balance. Perceived balance between all activities in daily life can together with performance of activities add to the understanding of consequences after stroke.
