ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new rehabilitation program for people who have recently had a stroke. Participants will take part in special activities designed to help their recovery while enjoying nature. These activities include physical therapy and brain exercises, all supported by a caring therapeutic approach. The goal is to see if spending time in a natural setting can improve their recovery and mental well-being, especially for issues like stress, anxiety, and loneliness that can occur after a stroke.

To be eligible for this trial, participants must be between 65 to 74 years old and have experienced an acute stroke. Unfortunately, those with severe speech difficulties or who are unable to make independent decisions, as well as those with certain serious health conditions, cannot participate. If you or a loved one qualifies, you can expect a supportive environment where you can engage in rehabilitation activities while benefiting from the calming effects of nature. This trial is currently looking for participants, so it’s a great opportunity for those seeking new ways to support their recovery.
