All discharge planning depends on your assessment:

Does the patient have residual weakness from the stroke?

If so, what is the plan for him to be rehabilitated outside the hospital?

Does the patient understand his care?

Does he have the proper cognition to handle his care?

Is he a candidate for home health, Rehab facility or SNF?

What type of anticoagulant are they on?

It all depends on what your assessments on the need of the patient. Needs of a stroke patient aren't just medical, but also emotional. If this is for a care plan, you want to be as individualized as possible.

There was a paper published recently that found that four simple questions asked at discharge can identify the need for help in the home to prevent readmission:

Do you live alone?

Who cooks for you?

Do you have more than 3 steps to get into your home?

How will you get your prescriptions?

Of course, we knew all that decades ago, but it's hot stuff now.

Does that give you any ideas?
