What does rehabilitation after a brain bleed entail?
The goals of long-term treatment are to help you regain the functions needed for daily living, as much and as soon as possible, and to prevent future brain hemorrhages. Rehabilitation and recovery time vary according to each person’s unique brain bleed and the extent of rehabilitation possible.
Long-term rehabilitation treatment may include:
- Physical therapy.
- Speech therapy or alternative forms of communication.
- Occupational therapy.
- Changing lifestyle habits to reduce risk of another hemorrhage. (See next question.)
