Summary

The aim is to design, implement and evaluate new person-centred transitions between stroke units and the home. The development of person-centred transition will be performed together by people with stroke, significant others, stroke unit staff and interdisciplinary teams.

Phase 1, a prospective observational study of current transitions from stroke units to rehabilitation in the home without coordination. The aim is to identify factors that are facilitators or barriers to transitions, patient and caregiver outcomes, use of health care during the first year after stroke. In phase 2, a co-design process of new person-centred transitions will be carried out by people with stroke, significant others, stroke unit staff and interdisciplinary home rehabilitation teams. In phase 3 new person-centred transitions will be implemented and evaluated in a feasibility study.
