STROKE
In conclusion, Community-based group rehabilitation program is a viable and cost-effective way to help stroke patients improve swallowing function, mood and quality of life. However, this method has not become the standard treatment for clinical rehabilitation in China. Further studies are needed to assess the feasibility of conducting group rehabilitation program in a community setting (such as a community center) and to follow up on the long-term benefits of participating in group rehabilitation program.
