Stroke recovery

Recovery after stroke can involve movement, communication, thinking and everyday independence. This pathway starts with what matters to you, connecting appropriate rehabilitation practice with family support and regular review by the professionals responsible for your care.

The starting point

Work towards meaningful daily activities, with rehabilitation adapted as needs change.

Adults recovering from an ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke who are medically stable and need continued rehabilitation. The assessment considers movement, communication, cognition, fatigue and the support available at home, alongside the treating team’s recommendations.

01 / Your goal

Make it personal.

02 / Your plan

Keep it connected.

03 / Your next step

Review it together.

What support can look like.

Your programme is shaped around your health, preferences and clinical needs.

01

Meaningful movement practice

Practice can focus on reaching, using the hand, standing, transfers or walking, according to your assessment and goals.

02

Daily skills and participation

Relevant therapy input may address dressing, communication, attention or returning to valued activities, with rest and adaptation where needed.

03

Family and home continuity

Caregivers can learn agreed ways to assist practice and everyday tasks, while raising concerns with the responsible professionals.

Your journey

Small steps.
A clear direction.

  1. Assessment

    Review discharge information and assess the daily activities, communication and movement that need support.

  2. Your plan

    Agree personal goals, therapy priorities and the supervision needed to practise appropriately.

  3. Supported practice

    Repeat meaningful tasks with suitable assistance, rest and caregiver involvement where helpful.

  4. Review

    Reassess function and goals, then progress, adapt or request further specialist input.

Make progress
personal.

The right measures help the team understand whether the plan is useful and what should happen next.

How measurement works
01 / Review together

Ability and assistance needed for chosen daily tasks

02 / Review together

Relevant movement measures, such as walking speed, balance or hand use

03 / Review together

Fatigue, participation and the person’s own experience of recovery

Measures are chosen by the clinician. These are examples, not a standard test package.

Working with your hospital

The right care, in the right place.

Stroke rehabilitation begins within specialist care and may continue after discharge. Your discharge plan, current abilities and home circumstances guide the next setting. MiMo360 support should connect with that plan, preserving therapy priorities and escalating new concerns instead of restarting your care without context.

Our referral approach

Your questions, answered.

Is support only useful soon after a stroke?

Needs can continue or change over time. A rehabilitation review can identify whether further work on personal goals, adaptations or caregiver support is appropriate for your current situation.

Does a family member need to attend?

That depends on your needs and preferences. If assistance is required, the plan should explain who will help and what they need to learn before home practice.

Will games or technology replace my therapist?

No. Suitable tools may support practice or record observations. A qualified professional selects and reviews rehabilitation, and game performance alone does not establish recovery in daily life.

Clinical perspective

Recovery varies, and no degree or timeline of recovery is guaranteed. Clinical suitability and the necessary team must be confirmed. New stroke symptoms require emergency care, not a routine appointment.
