StrokePath

The Programme

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.

Care areas

Twelve care areas

Each one is a screen of its own, built around what that part of recovery actually asks of a family day to day.

  • Physical recovery

    Movement, strength, and balance

  • Cognitive recovery

    Memory, attention, and thinking

  • Communication & swallowing

    Speech, language, and safe eating

  • Nutrition & health

    Food, hydration, and medication

  • Emotional wellbeing

    Mood, calm, and connection

  • Social support

    Family, friends, and community

  • Daily routine

    Today's plan and reminders

  • Safety & red flags

    When to call for help

  • Positioning & comfort

    Resting safely and avoiding sores

  • Transfers & mobility

    Moving from bed to chair, and walking

  • Goals & progress

    Small wins and steady progress

  • Home support

    Setting up the home for recovery

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.

What the library holds

Real clinical content, imported from the professionals' own working document rather than written for a website.

And a plan for the day

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

Ready now, and growing

StrokePath is ready to use in full from the day it opens, and we keep adding to it: new features, more care areas and more Education Hub topics, each reviewed before it is published.

Content that carries real safety risk shows its review status inside the app until a clinical lead has signed it off, so you always know where a piece of guidance stands.

Recovery is a long road. You shouldn't have to guess your way along it.

StrokePath is open. Set it up once, around what matters most, and start with today's plan.
