Abstract

This article focus on the present situation of the psychological health care related to the stroke patients. Stroke research occupies a prominent area in India, as stroke is a leading cause of disability and dependency. Stroke caused substantial demands on the individual, family and health care resources. Rehabilitation of patients with stroke need concern. A large number of stroke patients are forced to live with disabilities, due to the absence of neuro-psychologist, neuro- rehabilitation centers. In India, stroke prevalence, neuropsychological assessment and intervention, community awareness, lack of neuro- rehabilitation facility, less data on the stroke prevention strategy and lack of resources were few factors hindering the significance of stroke unit in the hospital. The resource facility is confined to metro cities only. The health care resources, psychosocial issues and, rehabilitation of stroke patients were the emerging issues that are of vital importance to address.
