  • Stroke survivors face significant challenges integrating into the community post-discharge.
  • Caregivers of stroke survivors often experience substantial burden and depression.
  • Family dynamics and support systems are crucial for successful stroke recovery and community reintegration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review literature from 1970-2002 on issues faced by stroke survivors and families.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of social support, caregiver support, and family education interventions.
  • To explore the role of social and leisure activities in post-stroke recovery.
