Stroke in Later Years

Words of wisdom

Peer support is an invaluable resource for helping people realize that they can recover from a stroke and continue to live a productive and full life. Hearing from others who have been living well in the aftermath of a stroke inspires those who have recently experienced a stroke to take their recovery into their own hands.

This 'Speaking From Experience' video clip offers first-hand experiences from people who have experienced stroke at age 50+. Here, 6 participants and 2 caregivers provide advice, encouragement and the wisdom of their experience for recovering from stroke.
