Can a home-modification program keep stroke patients out of nursing homes?
NCT ID NCT07069660
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two programs for people recovering from a stroke who are leaving inpatient rehab to go home. Half of the 520 participants will get a standard stroke education program, while the other half will get a program that helps modify their home environment. The goal is to see if the home-modification program reduces disability and the need for skilled nursing facility stays.
