Brief Summary
The goal of this feasibility study is to ascertain if this follow-up programme of care can feasibly be implemented within a healthcare system with people after minor stroke.
The main feasibility questions are:
i) To establish recruitment uptake ii) To establish treatment adherence iii) To determine participant retention. Participants will be randomly allocated to the intervention and control group. Those in the intervention group will receive a follow-up telephone call at two weeks after discharge and a second follow-up appointment at six weeks after discharge. Outcome measures will be taken at twelve weeks after discharge.
