Informal carers of stroke survivors reported low depression, but highlighted poor home rehabilitation follow-up. Effective discharge planning is crucial for managing carer demands and ensuring successful stroke recovery.

Area of Science:

Neurology
Public Health
Psychology

Background:

Over 346,000 Australians experience stroke annually, with many returning home requiring informal carer support.
Informal carers play a vital role in post-stroke recovery, significantly impacting survivors' ability to live at home.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the impact of the caring role on informal carers of stroke survivors.
To assess services provided to carers and their levels of depression and well-being.
To explore carer knowledge of available stroke support services.

Main Methods:

Longitudinal study design utilizing survey methods and structured interviews.
Assessment of stroke survivors and carers at 3 weeks and 3 months post-discharge.
Utilized Stroke Impact Scale, WHO Quality of Life-BREF, and Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale.

Main Results:

Carer and stroke survivor depression scores were below Australian norms at both assessment points.
Carers identified poor follow-up procedures for initiating home-based rehabilitation as a major concern.
Inadequate discharge planning and early discharge placed unrealistic demands on carers.

Conclusions:

While carers reported low depression, significant concerns exist regarding post-discharge support and rehabilitation.
Improved discharge planning is essential to mitigate the impact on carers and optimize stroke survivor rehabilitation.
Addressing carer needs and ensuring adequate support services are critical for successful home-based recovery.
