Stroke support service

We provide support, education and advice for people across Dorset who have suffered a stroke, as well as for their families and carers. 

Our stroke service aims to help people adjust to the life changes associated with a stroke and regain their independence wherever possible.

We offer all patients a six-month stroke review following discharge from hospital. All six month stroke reviews are completed virtually via video call or telephone.

If you, or your loved one, require support before the six-month review, please contact us at dhc.dorsetstrokeandneuroservice@nhs.net You can also ask your GP or other healthcare professional to refer you to our service.
