Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of the Training to Aid Patients with Stroke (TAP-S) Program on caregiver outcomes among informal caregivers of adult stroke patients during the early post-stroke period. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Does participation in the TAP-S Program improve caregiver knowledge regarding stroke management, rehabilitation, and home care?
2. Does participation in the TAP-S Program reduce caregiver burden and improve caregiver quality of life across multiple assessment phases?

Participants will:

1. Attend a structured caregiver education and training program covering basic stroke care, rehabilitation principles, positioning, transfers, home exercises, prevention of complications, and caregiver self-care.
2. Complete outcome assessments at baseline (pre-intervention), immediately post-intervention, and two weeks post-discharge.
3. Answer questionnaires measuring caregiver knowledge, caregiver strain, and quality of life.
