The paper focuses on recommendations for community stroke rehabilitation, in recognition
of the Integrated Community Stroke Service model (2022) and the National Stroke Model
(2021).

However, it also recognises that neuropsychological contributions to post-stroke
needs-assessment and rehabilitation are requirements across the whole stroke care pathway
(not just in community-based rehabilitation).
