Stroke Recovery Models: Optimizing Care and Outcomes

Show: (March 4, 2019)

Approximately 800,000 patients suffer a stroke each year in the United States, and Alabama has one of the highest stroke rates in the country. Unfortunately, only 30% of stroke survivors receive any outpatient stroke rehabilitation, which results in suboptimal recovery.

Chen Lin, MD, examines how The Stroke Recovery Clinic at UAB hopes to address this serious issue. With an array of therapists including speech, occupational, and physical therapy along with neuropsychology and social work, patients will be evaluated by multiple important services all in one visit. In addition, the clinic will be focused on improving quality of care and outcomes after stroke.
