Abstract:
The qualitative research explored the potential to deliver cognitive rehabilitation for post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI), with a specific focus on barriers and facilitators to its delivery from the perspective of stroke rehabilitation professionals. Sixteen semi-structured interviews were completed with healthcare professionals in both hospital and community settings. Staffing required to deliver cognitive rehabilitation for PSCI was highlighted as under-resourced. Inadequate resourcing of neuropsychology and stroke-related psychological services, in particular, has had negative implications for the delivery of cognitive rehabilitation. Stroke-specific cognitive rehabilitation expertise is virtually inaccessible in the community, highlighting an urgent need for investment in specialist rehabilitation teams to deliver cognitive rehabilitation in this setting.
