Summary

This study tests whether a program called PEER-HOMEcare is practical and helpful for people recovering from stroke at home. The program involves therapists and family members working together to adapt the home environment and use wearable sensors to track movement. Researchers will enroll 45 adults in Norway, Sweden, and Latvia who had a stroke within the last six months. The main goal is to see if the program is feasible and acceptable, not yet to prove it improves recovery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Environmental enrichment program (home modifications, behavioral coaching, wearable sensors)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could pave the way for a larger trial testing whether adapting the home environment improves stroke recovery and engagement.

What could go wrong

This is a small feasibility study with no control group, so it cannot prove the intervention works. Results may not apply to all stroke survivors.
