ABSTRACT
While physical rehabilitation (e.g. physical and occupational therapy, spasticity management) is perhaps the most recognized facet of stroke rehabilitation, other aspects of the rehabilitative process, such as management of depression and cognitive impairments, are equally important. These deficits continue long after the usual rehabilitation process has been completed, and may involve professionals such as neuropsychologists. Participation in a stroke support group by both the patient and the caregiver can also be helpful in connecting to community resources.
