What is inside StrokePath
A working library of practical guidance across twelve care areas, seven in depth guides, and an education hub, with a daily plan that pulls from whichever areas matter most to you.

An education hub
110 topics across 11 sections, from what a stroke actually is through to getting back into the community. Some are full written articles and some are still summaries, and the hub shows which is which.
Who is writing the rest
The topics still sitting as summaries are being written out in full, and they are being commissioned from practising medical professionals rather than written in-house.
Recovery after a stroke crosses more than one speciality, so the articles and guides are being sourced across faculties: medicine and neurology, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, dietetics, psychology and social work. The questions families actually arrive with rarely respect the boundary between departments, and a hub written from a single perspective has gaps exactly where it is needed most.
Every piece is reviewed before it is published. Until it has been, the hub says so rather than letting it look finished.
And a plan for the day
You choose the areas that matter
A short set of questions during setup suggests four to focus on. You confirm them, and change them whenever you like.
The day is built from those areas
Each one contributes an activity, drawn from the same clinical library, rotating so it does not become the same day repeated.
One thing at a time
Nothing shows you step three before step one. Mark something done and it moves on.
Built for the people who actually use it
Designed around impairment
Large touch targets, one action per screen, plain language at roughly a sixth grade reading level, and no interface that depends on colour alone to tell you something.
Read aloud
Guidance can be read out, with each word highlighted as it is spoken, for anyone finding reading hard.
Works without signal
It installs to a phone and keeps working offline once a screen has been opened, which matters on a metered connection.
Wording follows who you are
The same guidance is worded differently for a survivor and for a caregiver, and switches whenever you do.
What is not in it yet
Demonstration video is not filmed. Some education topics are summaries rather than full written articles.
Content that carries real safety risk shows its review status inside the app until a clinical lead has signed it off. That notice is deliberate: on this subject, quietly looking finished is worse than visibly being in progress.
Who is behind it
StrokePath is built by multidisciplinary rehabilitation professionals, for the families who carry recovery once the hospital cannot.
