Implementing the psychosocial screening, tools & strategies for stroke teams 

Felicity Bright and John Davison will discuss the Psychosocial Well-being resource for NZ stroke services which has been developed over the last two years. This resource is designed to support all clinicians to provide routine screening and support for psychosocial well-being for clients and whanau. The webinar will present different approaches to psychosocial screening, practical action plans when clinicians have concerns, and will introduce the Stepped Care Model, which is recommended as an approach to supporting well-being as part of routine stroke service provision.
