Stroke survivors' perspectives on recovering in rural and remote Australia: A systematic mixed studies review
CONCLUSION: Stroke survivors recovering in rural and remote locations want to live their life by doing what matters to them, despite the challenges they face. They want support in ways that work for them in their environment. Further research is required to tailor support for stroke survivors that is specific to their life in rural and remote locations.PMID:34918349 | DOI:10.1111/1440-1630.12779
