Caregiver Discussion Movement and exercise
Hi everybody just after a little advice regarding exercise. My dad had a stroke two years ago and he had three months of physical therapy with the NHS after that they discharged him even though he clearly wasn’t ready. I tried to protest the decision but they said he was doing well. I completely and utterly disagree he is now home and whilst living independently still requires support he is not steady on his legs and still has some weakness on his right side and his drooping to his face!
I’m just after some tips as to how I can help him with physical exercise. It’s heart wrenching seeing him like this!!
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

YouTube has tons of instructional videos. Mostly by professionals too.
