Abstract
The nurse has many opportunities and interventions with which to facilitate rehabilitation for the patient with a stroke. The most effective interventions are those related to helping the patient become as independent as possible and to increasing feelings of self-worth and dignity, which in turn has a positive impact on the resocialization of the patient in the family and community.
