This trial is testing a new way to provide follow-up care for people who have recently had a stroke. Instead of requiring patients to visit a clinic in person, specially trained nurses will conduct some consultations using video calls on a smartphone. The study wants to see if this telehealth approach works just as well as traditional face-to-face visits, while being more flexible and convenient for patients recovering from stroke.
Many stroke patients have difficulty traveling to clinics during their recovery, and the COVID-19 pandemic made in-person visits even more challenging. This trial explores whether video consultations could provide safe, effective, and more convenient care for stroke survivors over the long term.

If you join this trial, you will be randomly assigned to receive either three video consultations with a stroke nurse over three months, or three traditional in-person clinic visits. Either way, you'll receive the same skilled nursing care — the only difference is how you receive it. The study will track your recovery and satisfaction with the care model to see which approach works best for stroke patients.
