Stroke and Older Persons: Coping and Caring Among Elderly Stroke Survivors and their Families


A component of the Aging Studies Program of SDRC, this project was an integrative and holistic inquiry into the vulnerable Filipino elderly who have experienced stroke (including their ways of coping); the needs, problems, and concerns of family caregivers; and the issues and prospects attendant to family caregiving and community-based rehabilitation for elderly stroke survivors. The results of this study can be used to improve the quality of support and the range of resources that can be provided to elderly stroke survivors and their families.
