INTRODUCTION TO STROKE RECOVERY ASSOCIATION OF BC (SRABC)
โ€ข Vision – Every stroke survivor in BC has respect, inclusion, and support in their home community.
โ€ข Mission Statement – Through its local Stroke Recovery Branches, SRABC is committed to assisting stroke survivors and their caregivers throughout the province to improve their overall quality of life.
โ€ข The purposes of SRABC are:
o To assist stroke survivors and their caregivers throughout BC to improve their overall quality of life and remain living independently.
o To increase awareness within the community of the impact of stroke.
o To raise awareness in the community of the services offered throughout the Province to stroke survivors and their caregivers.
o To act as a resource for hospitals and for people concerned with the effect of
o strokes on individuals and their families.
o To plan and promote programs of education and of assistance to stroke survivors in BC.
o To disseminate information on stroke prevention.
โ€ข Programs and Services
o SRABC provides support and information to anyone whose life has been affected by stroke, and to other stakeholders in the field of stroke recovery, such as healthcare professionals. Our services offer support to stroke survivors which allows them to live independently in the community, thus alleviating the pressure on community health services. The inclusion and empowerment of stroke survivors and their caregivers in our communities enriches their diversity, and helps overcome the barriers to people with disabilities in accessing community services and resources.
o We have around 30 Branches throughout BC which offer a range of programs and services to assist stroke survivors and their caregivers. They provide a friendly social environment where stroke survivors and caregivers can get support and help in coping with life after stroke. Branches offer activities such as social events, exercise, communication and cognitive stimulation. In some Branches programs are run by professionals, such as physiotherapists, and in others they are volunteer-driven. Approximately one thousand individuals attend these programs. Recruitment of new members occurs through hospital visits, liaising with health services in hospitals and the community and connecting with social workers during discharge planning.
o Our educational materials are distributed regularly to health authorities, hospitals and rehabilitation centres throughout BC. We also respond daily to requests for information and referral by phone (1-800 number), email and from our website.
o SRABC also conducts research into community-based stroke recovery, supported by the University of BC, the Ministry of Health, Heart and Stroke Foundation, the Provincial Health Services Authority, Regional Health Authorities and grants and sponsorship from the private sector.
