What this Trial Is About
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability. Research has placed little emphasis on integrating care partners (CP) (family members) into the rehabilitation process without increasing negative care partner outcomes. The research team has developed and implemented a novel, web-based care partner-focused intervention (CARE-CITE) designed to foster problem-solving and skill building while facilitating care partner engagement during stroke survivor (SS) upper extremity practice of daily activities in the home setting. By providing a family-focused approach to rehabilitation interventions, this project will help develop more effective treatments that improve CP and outcomes after stroke.
