After suffering from a stroke, a critical aspect of rehabilitation is communication.

Stroke victims often become withdrawn - exacerbated by an unfamiliar hospital environment 🏥 - making the physical problems of articulating their feelings much more difficult ⚠️

Just as medicine is an art, art is a medicine. We are proud to be working with , a fantastic charity that uses the arts to powerful effect in stroke rehabilitation 🗣📖👱

Through a network of professional actors who read to stroke survivors, both in hospital and at home, InterAct has been shown to improve people's well-being and create a positive environment to stimulate creativity, language and memory ✅

When an individual needs care, sometimes it is because a loved one who used to provide that care has passed away. The word ‘care’ is far more than the physical aspects of looking after someone… it encapsulates companionship, compassion and relating to that person on a deeply personal level. Whilst we may never be able to replace the care a person used to have, as caregivers we must always remember that this person was someone’s son or daughter, husband or wife, father or mother, and a person in themselves deserving of the highest level of dignity that we ourselves would wish for those we love ♥️
