AnnotationThis guide contains highlights from "Post-stroke rehabilitation, clinical practice guideline no 16", which was developed by a multidisciplinary, private sector panel comprised of health care professionals and a consumer representative. The guide is an example of how clinicians might implement the panel's findings and recommendations on the overall management of stroke patients who need post-stroke rehabilitation programmes or services before returning to a family or other living environment. Topics include medical management of patients, systematic assessment and evaluation of patients throughout acute care and rehabilitation, referring patients to appropriate programmes, managing the rehabilitation process, discharging patients from rehabilitation programmes, and reintegrating patients into family and community environments.
