Although awareness of stroke deterioration and recurrence was similar between groups, caregivers demonstrated greater recognition of residual effects, such as one-sided weakness and speech difficulties. Higher education, particularly holding a graduation degree, was strongly associated with better awareness among caregivers, including an improved understanding of the role of medications and therapies in stroke management. These findings underscore the need for structured training programs to equip caregivers with essential knowledge for supporting stroke survivors after hospital discharge. Enhancing caregiver education can improve understanding of recovery trajectories, promote effective management of residual symptoms, and help families set realistic goals for community reintegration. Addressing these gaps in caregiver training could lead to better outcomes for both stroke survivors and their families.</p>","PeriodicalId":37842,"journal":{"name":"Home healthcare now","volume":"43 2","pages":"102-107"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143524801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
