简要总结
Caregivers often lack awareness of available community support services and rely on informal sources instead of qualified professionals like physiotherapists
Informal guidance varies in quality and may negatively impact the recovery of stroke patients
Community health workers in rural India have varying levels of knowledge about stroke management, which affects the advice given to caregivers
Caregivers of stroke survivors experience high physical, emotional, and mental stress, influencing their healthcare choices
Studying caregivers’ knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) will help identify barriers such as lack of knowledge, access, or cost that affect their preference for informal providers over qualified physiotherapists
