ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06596551
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The ARCH programme is a novel, strength-based, dyadic, multicomponent psychosocial intervention that blends together psychoeducation, psychosocial support and self-compassion practices to aid first-time stroke survivors and their family caregivers with their psycho-socio-emotional and spiritual challenges following discharge from in-patient care. A pre-post experimental design with a feasibility and acceptability assessment is adopted to evaluate and refine the ARCH intervention in promoting wellbeing, self-compassion, independence, quality of life, hope, resilience, self-efficacy and dyadic mutuality.
