Holistic Rehabilitation Support for Stroke Patients in Perth
The motion
That the Parliament notes that the Holistic Rehabilitation Support Service that is provided for stroke patients in Perth by Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland may stop in April 2019 if funding is not identified; understands that the charity needs to raise £30,000 to continue and expand its service across NHS Tayside; commends the pilot service that has been delivered in partnership with the Perth Royal Infirmary, and which provides stroke survivors with one-to-one support in order to help them rebuild their lives; considers that the service is a positive example of the third sector working with health and care services to provide integrated and person-centred care, and urges NHS Tayside, and the Health and Social Care Partnerships of Dundee, Angus and Perth and Kinross to work with Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland in order to maintain vital support for stroke survivors in the region.
