Fast path to stroke recovery at Cleveland Clinic Rehabilitation Hospital in Avon

The intensity of 3 hours of therapy a day is still appallingly low when you consider that patients have plenty of time to do therapy.
From some of my earlier posts:
Only 13 % of a stroke unit patient’s day is typically spent in activities related to functional outcome.

Patients should have no downtime except to sleep and with that they should be trained in lucid dreaming. There is no place for slackers in stroke recovery. Eating should be therapy, using your affected side. The foods you eat should be proven as stroke prevention. If you aren't working the hardest you have ever worked in your life you aren't going to recover to the best of your ability. Nothing your doctor or therapist does will magically make your recovery occur. ALL the work is for you to accomplish.
