clarelouise: I love your name. As for stroke patient and dysphasia, be mindful of the fear factor. The fear of choking overrides the fear of hunger. People will refrain from eating because they do not want to choke to death. This means there must be an attendant at EVERY meal or snack. They are afraid to swallow their own saliva. Something we take for granted. Other than the lifestyle restrictions, and inability to do self-care, I would focus on the methods to diagnose and treat as related to nursing.
