| Annotation | In an ongoing project funded by the North of England Cardiovascular Network (NECVN) various relaxation resources are being developed specifically to benefit people who have suffered a stroke, and their carers. The relaxation uses spoken and musical techniques which are availalble for patients to keep as both CDs and MP3s, and the project has also secured an iPad to use with those who have experienced cognitive changes since their stroke. The aim is for relaxation to become an integrated part of stroke rehabilitation so that when appropriate, every stroke patient can benefit from relaxation during their stay in hospital once they are discharged.
