THE MANUAL OF FAMILY Stroke Awareness for Everyone, Inc., (SAFE, Inc.)
Italian translation and adaptation of Alessandro Tinti
This manual is dedicated to those who provide care and support to families affected by stroke, in particular the hundreds of people in recent years have formed a support group for caregivers of stroke patients. This group was created by twelve people who have come together for the first time on July 5, 1996. Over the years many people have been added, others are gone, but somehow everyone was able to share their experiences and find comfort in the worst moments. We are caregivers of husbands, wives and friends. We have between 20 and 80 years. We are men and women who have dealt with situations that can be understood only by living them directly. After five years of our group decided to make available all of his experience. It 's a constant work in progress, updated on the basis of what we live every day, which we hope will provide advice to those living our own adventure and need to understand. This material is online at www.strokesafe.org/.
We are not doctors and make no health claims, we seek only to share experiences and opinions. Always refer to medical personnel for guidance to health. In this particular
manual has been edited by Joyce Dreslin that has seen her husband since the stroke that hit in 1999, and technically put together by Rex Stocklin, a person of 44 years suffered a stroke in 1995.
Note of translator:
The manual was created that we present in an American context, in some ways different from ours, mainly from the perspective of the organization of health services. In this sense, wherever possible we've made some personal changes to the text (also indicated by the footnote "NdT") or deleted directly on the text, find the points where the symbol (...). In particular, we chose to omit the 5th chapter (on issue of nursing homes assisted).
