Abstract
Information for patients
- Psychologists work with people with Stroke and their families
- Psychologists ask a number of things to help understand the difficulties patients have
- To do this they may:
- Talk about the things that you do, what you think about and how you feel
- Ask you to write things down during the day or answer questions
- Psychologists will work together with you to develop new ways of coming and thinking about things
- Psychologists may give advice to you and your family to help plan the way forward
- Psychologists will work with other people you come to see in the hospital to help you cope with your illness
- Psychologists will let your medical team and GP know how they were able to help you - but they will not talk to anyone unless you say it is okay or we think you might not be safe.
