الملخص: | © 2020, © 2020 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. This study investigated the effectiveness of rehabilitation services provided by trained Village Health Volunteers (VHVs) on community integration and quality of life (QOL) for stroke patients in Thailand. Community integration and QOL were measured before receiving rehabilitation and at three months post-intervention. Twenty-five stroke subjects from four rehabilitation centers were recruited by purposive sampling. The statistics used were descriptive and paired t-test. The community integration scores increased significantly (p <.05) from pre-test (mean = 9.80 ± 3.96) to post-test (mean = 11.44 ± 4.68). The QOL scores also significantly (p <.05) increased from pre-test (mean = 71.44 ± 8.38) to post-test (mean = 84.88 ± 12.07). Results demonstrate that rehabilitation services provided by trained VHVs can promote community integration and QOL for stroke survivors. |
