STROKE SA was established in 1992 to provide much needed support and information to people who had experienced a stroke and their carers.
STROKE SA can assist people and their carers by:
• Assisting them both to find groups where they can receive support and enjoy social interaction as they rebuild their lives and re-engage in the community.
• Promoting appropriate services for the treatment and rehabilitation of those who have had a stroke.
• Providing opportunities to help others who have had similar experiences.
There are support groups operating in metropolitan and regional SA to offer people with stroke and their carers the opportunity for social contact with others of similar experience.
These groups give the chance to discuss and share problems with others who have first hand knowledge of them, and to hear strategies and solutions which others have worked out for themselves.
Many people find that the groups give them back what they thought they would never enjoy again, such as self esteem, fellowship, fun, a sense of purpose and pleasure in life.
