Understood Care
Care advocates help you move from hospital to home with a clear plan, coordinated therapy, and steady support so recovery feels manageable.
Stroke can change movement, speech, and mood. Your advocate explains your care plan, tracks next steps, and helps you and your family feel more prepared, supported, and heard during recovery.
We explain ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, and TIA in plain language. You learn your risk factors and urgent warning signs so you know when to call 911 or seek emergency care fast.
After the hospital, your advocate organizes discharge instructions, schedules neurology and primary care visits, confirms therapy referrals, and builds a short checklist so important follow ups are not missed.
We coordinate physical, occupational, and speech therapy, swallowing and cognitive evaluations, and home health when eligible, and help you set up equipment, home safety updates, and simple daily routines.
Your advocate explains antiplatelets or anticoagulants, statins, and blood pressure or diabetes plans, helps with refills and lab reminders, and supports scheduling heart rhythm checks or follow up imaging.
We handle referrals, prior authorizations, and therapy visit limits, review bills, and search for medication savings, grants, and ride benefits so you can focus energy on healing instead of paperwork.
Stroke recovery affects everyone at home. We coach caregivers on safe transfers and communication, check in on mood and burnout, and connect you with community support so you feel encouraged, not alone.
