Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery Network (SRN)


National Stroke Association Launches New
Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery Network (SRN)


Pioneering The First Stroke Rehabilitation Support Network
National Stroke Association’s Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery Network (SRN) is a ground-breaking program for the stroke rehabilitation community.  This membership network is designed to help rehabilitation providers achieve the best possible outcomes for stroke survivors by providing cutting-edge tools and resources necessary to advance post-stroke care.  This network helps members:

  • Increase their knowledge of best practices and current research
  • Enhance community outreach and reintegration programs
  • Advance stroke rehabilitation services
  • Improve quality of care

New Standards in Stroke Rehabilitation
Stroke Specialty Program Standards recently developed by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), along with emerging stroke treatments, demand now more than ever that stroke rehabilitation programs demonstrate proficiency.  In order to meet the needs of the continually growing stroke survivor population and remain competitive in today’s market, stroke rehabilitation programs must:

  • Provide quality education
  • Deliver ongoing medical management and care across the continuum
  • Address recurrent stroke prevention
  • Demonstrate best practices
  • Minimize impairment
  • Reduce activity limitations
  • Maximize patient and family participation
  • Provide community linkages to stroke survivors and caregivers
  • Improve quality of life  

“SRN is an efficient and effective way to stay current in the field of stroke, provide state of the art materials for customers and their families and interact with the leaders in stroke rehabilitation. With the rapid development of stroke networks it is critical that providers be well informed and involved. This is an excellent opportunity for that involvement.”
Chris MacDonell, CARF
