THERAPY CENTRES
TAILOR and CONNECT Therapy Centres have been established in Adelaide, Melbourne and Newcastle for individuals with stroke who have had a stroke between 3-18 months ago and are experiencing difficulties performing activities with their affected arm and hand that they would like to work on during the Therapy Program.
PROGRAMS OF THERAPY
Participants will each receive two Programs of Therapy that run for six weeks each and will be asked to attend 7-8 assessment sessions over a period of 12 months. Therapy is delivered in an environment of choice and can be home-based or centre-based.
