Summary

This study evaluates a program designed to help individuals transition home from inpatient rehabilitation following an ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. Half of the participants will receive a stroke education program while the other half will receive an environmental modifications program.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

COMPASS

The data from the baseline assessment will be used to develop an environmental modification intervention plan. Environmental modifications will be installed before discharge if possible. Problem areas addressed are participant specific (tailored), but the process to identify and address the target area is systematic. All participants will receive identical intervention components. The standardized components include assessment, identification of problematic activities (and environmental barriers), identification of three solutions (for each problem), implementation of solution set selected by the participant, training, and active practice of daily activities in one's own home and community.

BEHAVIORAL

Stroke education

The control group will experience the same effects of time and attention in the home but no effect on the outcome of interest.
