Caregivers assume multiple roles as they help people with aphasia to access outpatient rehabilitative care in an increasingly person-centred model of care. Examining caregiver roles and how different stakeholders in the rehabilitative journey perceive these roles may be the first step in providing more tailored support to caregivers and improving outcomes for both caregivers and people with aphasia.<h4>Aims</h4>To characterize the roles caregivers assume while navigating outpatient rehabilitative care for people with aphasia after stroke from the perspective of different stakeholders in the rehabilitative process.<h4>Methods & procedures</h4>Thirty-International journal of language & communication disordersCaregivers navigating rehabilitative care for people with aphasia after stroke: a multi-lens perspective.PMC66094872KR80160973923UL1TR001111UL1 TR002489UL1 TR001111Shafer PRHaley KLShafer JSfalseCaregivers navigating rehabilitative care for people with aphasia after stroke: a multi-lens perspective.<h4>Background</h4>Up to 40% of stroke survivors acquire aphasia and require long-term caregiver assistance after discharge from the hospital.
