"Care after our strokes"

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

(as a service user),

I had a stroke.

The Community Stroke Team came

They are all marvellous. Leanne helped me with walking and my shoulder, Rhea and Tracey helped me. I'm cooking again. Margaret got me talking and doing some reading again.

It helps to have a phone number so when I've been poorly I can change appointments.

I think they have been marvellous, I truly truly do.

My wife had a stroke and the Community Stroke Team came.

They've been great. I've looked forward to their visits.

Just having them visit was a help. They've given advice when I've asked for it and it's sound advice.

My wife has come on that well.

They are all great.

Dear magpiehn78,

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Community Stroke Team. This is wonderful feedback and I will pass this on to the team, specifically Leanne, Rhea, Tracey and Margaret whom you have mentioned.

It is really important to us that our patients, families and carers let us know how well / or not we are doing in order that we shape the delivery of services to become as patient /family/carer centred as we can.

We understand and appreciate how challenging life can be following a stroke for both strike survivors and family. In your case you have experienced this from both sides and I'm really pleased that the team have been able to support both you and your wife through this difficult time.

We wish you and your wife a continued recovery and all the best for the future.

Thank you so much.

Claire Lee

Community Stroke Team Lead
