STROKE RECOVERY GUIDE
1. WHAT IS A STROKE
A stroke is a type of brain injury that happens when blood flow to the brain is blocked or when a blood vessel in the brain bursts. Because the brain controls movement, speech, memory and so much more, the effects of a stroke can look very different from one person to the next.
Some people may struggle with weakness on one side of the body, while others may have trouble speaking, thinking clearly, or maintaining balance.
The important thing to remember is this: recovery is possible, and rehabilitation plays a major role in helping stroke survivors regain independence and confidence.
