Rehabilitating patients with stroke.
Experience at the Burke Rehabilitation Center indicates that a rehabilitation program established early and giving proper attention to both personal and medical aspects can make it possible for 80% of stroke victims to return home and to function with reasonable adequacy. Rehabilitation efforts should begin as soon as possible after a stroke and can be effectively carried out in community hospitals.
