Summary

The purpose of this study is to create a virtual stroke community for stroke survivors and informal caregivers of stroke survivors by customizing an existing VE intervention to incorporate real-time, stroke-specific, psychosocial self management education (SME) and social interactions, to test feasibility, acceptability, and usability of the customized intervention for stroke survivors and informal caregivers of stroke survivors and to obtain and explore data to derive evidence-based hypotheses and properly design and conduct a future, larger trial to demonstrate treatment efficacy.

BEHAVIORAL

Learning in a Virtual Environment (LIVE)

Phase 1 of the study will be a one-time meeting, either remote or in-person to complete V.E. training and fill out questionnaires. Phase 2 of the study is the 8 week intervention implementation.Participants will access the V.E. community from their homes on a computer with broadband internet. During the first four weeks of the intervention, participants will be required to come into the V.E. at least once per week for at least one hour. For the last four weeks, V.E. participation is strongly encouraged, but not required. The content in the V.E. will focus on psychosocial health and stroke recovery, and the messaging in the VE will be updated bi-weekly to encourage retention and engagement. Group meetings led by the study PI, a psychologist, or another trained member of the research team at least once a week will be offered. During the intervention period, VE-specific data will be collected continuously. Phase 3, will include a survey and a focus group interview via online platform.
