Have you had yours?
Individuals who have had a stroke are eligible for a six-month post-stroke review.
The six-month review service is for all adults 18 and over, who are registered with a GP and who have had a diagnosis of stroke.
Most people will automatically be contacted by their local NHS commissioned provider for an appointment between 4-8 months after a stroke. The review allows time to discuss your medical, social and emotional needs and can provide you with helpful information and signposting or onward referral if further treatment or support is required.
If you are not sure if a review has been done or if there are any queries please contact Margaret Reeves, stroke nurse, by email or telephone.
