"Provided a valuable support service"

About: Specialist Therapy Services / Community Stroke Team – South Notts

(as a service user),

I had two strokes at the age of 46.

In March 2025 whilst at work, I experienced a stroke which resulted in admission to hospital. Upon return home and during my recovery, I had a 2nd stroke leading to a further stay in hospital.

Whilst recovery from the 2nd stroke was rapid, the impact on my confidence was significant and I initially struggled to process what had happened. I was fearful of a 3rd and what that might mean for my health and my family.

Thankfully, the Community Stroke Team provided a valuable support service which helped in my recovery both physically and mentally. I am now almost fully recovered and life is back to the way it was before my strokes.

Dear Jaiman

Thankyou very much for taking the time to tell us about your experience with our Stroke Team. It is good to hear about the support you had to help you recover from your strokes and manage the anxiety that this bought for you and your family. I will ensure that the team receive your feedback which I know they will be very happy to hear.
