About this book
When a loved one survives a stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI), the hospital stay is only the beginning. The real challenge begins at home.
The First 90 Days After Stroke & Brain Injury is a practical, compassionate, and highly actionable caregiver guide designed to help families navigate the most critical period of neurological recovery. Whether your loved one is recovering from an ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, traumatic brain injury, brain trauma, or neurological impairment, this book provides clear guidance for every stage of the journey.
Inside, you'll discover how to create a safe home environment, understand discharge instructions, manage medications, recognize warning signs, prevent complications, and support meaningful rehabilitation between therapy sessions. More importantly, you'll learn what most hospitals never have enough time to explain.
