[Cognitive and activity-oriented processes in the rehabilitation of elderly stroke patients].
Investigated were 12 aged stroke patients during and one-half year after treatment in hospital; interviews are compared with regard to stress, competence, and coping. The analysis shows that patients become aware of multiple restrictions after their release from hospital. We pointed out that rehabilitation should concentrate more strongly on normal life demands of the patients as well as on their psycho-social resources. A survey of some of the typical coping strategies is included, which could be considered during the rehabilitation process.
