Abstract:
Preparing the young stroke survivor for work is an essential aspect of the rehabilitation process. This unique prevocational program, the Functional Occupations Program (FOP), is designed to provide outpatient, interdisciplinary group services to those who want to return to work or an occupation after cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or other devastating injuries. In the past 3.5 years of the program, 39 CVAs were seen. Preliminary outcome measures indicate that 20% of the CVAs served in year 3 and beginning of year 4 returned to work, with 58% of those individuals in blue collar jobs.
