Critics Review
“The Caregiver’s Guide to Stroke Recovery is written by an expert teacher, facilitator, and coordinator of stroke care, stroke support groups, and stroke recovery. Ms. Jorgensen’s advice is experienced, drawn from her academic practices and from firsthand encounters touching and comforting the lives of hundreds of individuals and their families. Ms. Jorgensen combines true stories and very practical knowledge in a well-organized manner that informs, prepares, and empowers any reader, whether a patient, a caregiver, or a loved one, about how to provide the best possible care for the stroke patient and the caregiver. This handbook removes fear and vulnerability and replaces it with information and understanding.” –Dr. Dan Miulli, stroke medical director and neurosurgeon
