Living with Stroke
The SWO Stroke Network is currently seeking volunteers who are health care providers or individuals with group facilitation skills who would be interested in facilitating the Living with Stroke program to take a 1 day facilitator training workshop.
Living with Stroke is a group learning program that consists of eight, 2-hour workshops, conducted weekly. It has been developed for people who have had a stroke and for individuals who care for people after stroke. The program is based on self management principles and the sessions will include discussion, videos and activities to help participants learn more about dealing with stroke. Living with Stroke provides participants with tools and support to improve their quality of life, reduce the risk of another stroke, participate in your recovery and find the help you need to adjust to life after stroke.
Note: For individuals who live outside of the London area, the HSF will reimburse travel and accommodation (guidelines apply).
