June is Stroke Month and this year is focused specifically on the impact of stroke on women. This live panel discussion will take a deeper dive into how mental health can impact the experiences and recovery of women following stroke. Post-stroke mental health issues are reported to affect up to 30% to 60% of people in the first year after experiencing a stroke. Of equal concern is the large number of family members and informal caregivers who also may also experience mental health challenges during this time. Due to the disproportionate effects of stroke on women\, it is important to raise awareness and understand their unique experiences\, and to provide tools and resources that may aid in recognition\, assessment\, recovery\, and self-management.
