You could always do Knowledge deficit: stroke related to lack of experience. And goals could be describe risk factors and signs and symptoms of stroke... just an idea from a neuro nurse ;) Hope it helps

This was just asked this week on this same forum and received a lot of attention and I posted a whole bunch of other previous threads that addressed care plans for stroke patients. Nursing diagnoses are based upon the symptoms your patient has.

You should also see this thread about writing care plans in the student forums:
