Stroke Support Group of Havasu
Stroke Support Group of Havasu improves the quality of life for stroke survivors and their caregivers.
You are invited to join our support group, a safe and accepting place to share personal stories, get help with problems, celebrate successes, and receive support from others who have been through a similar situation.
The Stroke Support Group of Havasu provides a place for survivors, families, and caregivers to interact socially and meaningfully with others. In addition to our monthly meetings, we have a presence at all of our local community health fairs, veteran’s stand-down events, back-to-school fairs, and other local events sponsored by HCHF and others distributing information on risk factors and prevention.
KATHRYN HAMMOND MS CCC
Kathryn, our facilitator has been a speech-language pathologist working with stroke patients for 40 years, and can often offer suggestions for local resources, as well as provide information regarding specific speech-language-cognitive-swallowing deficits a survivor may be experiencing. Our Stroke group is a round-table discussion format. Attendance at our group will provide stroke survivors and their families and caregivers with information about their stroke recovery, where they might be in their recovery, and ideas for how to move forward. Other survivors will provide their insight, born of living through similar circumstances and getting through it, to help as the new stroke survivor moves through recovery. We also welcome folks who had a stroke many years ago, as they can provide insights into the long-term effects of stroke, and give information on what worked for them. As we are constantly changing and adapting, even someone who is a long-term stroke survivor can learn something new, when we come together to share!
