Interventions

OTHER

VIRTUAL

At the time of discharge, stroke survivors in the VIRTUAL arm will receive a package containing an iPad and a remote BP monitoring device that allows transmission of BP to the study team.The first telehealth visit will occur 7-14 days after discharge. Patient will be counseled on the importance of BP monitoring, salt reduction, and the importance of diet and exercise for stroke prevention. Medications, side effects and interactions will be reviewed. The social worker will refer the patient to specific resources according to social needs abd patient will be referred to a primary care provider if they do not have one. Subsequent video visits will be 1-month (30 days +/- 7) , 3 months (90 days +/- 14), and 5 months (150 days +/- 14) days after enrollment.

OTHER

Standard care

Participants randomized to standard care will receive an educational packet and a blood pressure monitor prior to hospital discharge. They will be contacted by a social worker to determine if they received their medications and appointments. The stroke practitioner will evaluate the patients at 7-14 days and then follow up according to current standard of care. They will be seen over video or in-person, according to their preference and capabilities. The pharmacist will contact patients at 1-month (30 +/- 7 days) days over the telephone to review BP logs and will make recommendations to their primary care provider to adjust BP medications. Subsequent pharmacist calls will occur monthly until 6 months and recommendations for medication adjustments will be communicated to their primary care provider.
