Understanding the condition

A stroke is an emergency whose after-effects - paralysis, disturbances of speech, swallowing and memory - durably upend daily life. In Morocco, stroke is a major cause of acquired disability, and returning home after hospital is a delicate stage. Recovery depends largely on early, regular rehabilitation and careful neurological monitoring. Our qualified nurses, employed by SOS Nursing, support this return home across the whole of Marrakech: mobilisation, prevention of the complications of bed rest, monitoring of vital signs and psychological support, in coordination with the neurologist, the treating physician and the physiotherapist. The aim is to maximise functional recovery while keeping a vulnerable patient safe and supporting a family that is often destabilised.

Why home care for Stroke Recovery Care

Rehabilitation and mobilisation started as soon as the patient returns home, in a familiar environment, accelerate functional recovery and reduce the risk of complications and recurrence.

What the nurse does at every visit

Neurological and vital-sign monitoring, prevention of pressure sores and phlebitis, help with mobilisation, hygiene care, management of a feeding tube or swallowing difficulties, and stimulation exercises.

Visit frequency and monitoring

Daily or several-times-weekly visits during the recovery phase, adjusted according to the severity of the after-effects and the rehabilitation programme, generally over several weeks to several months.

Coordination with your treating physician

The nurse passes on the neurological and functional progress to the neurologist and the treating physician, and synchronises care with physiotherapy and speech therapy sessions for a coherent course of care.

Equipment and home monitoring

Monitoring of blood pressure and pulse, prevention of the effects of bed rest (anti-pressure-sore mattress, compression stockings), technical mobility aids. The nurse also ensures the home is adapted.

The family's role between visits

We train relatives in safe transfers, in fall prevention, in adapting food in the event of swallowing difficulties and in emotional support, which is essential in the face of the after-effects.

AMO / CNSS coverage

The aftermath of a stroke often falls under a long-term illness (ALD). Nursing acts (AMI) are coded according to the NGAP and reimbursable by AMO/CNSS, with a compliant coded receipt and a signed care record at every visit.

Frequently asked questions

  • Yes. We coordinate nursing care with physiotherapy sessions and, in the event of language disorders, with speech therapy, for comprehensive and coherent care centred on the patient.

  • The aftermath of a stroke often qualifies for coverage as a long-term illness (ALD). Nursing acts (AMI) coded according to the NGAP are reimbursable by AMO/CNSS; we provide a compliant coded receipt.

  • Yes. Our nurses monitor swallowing, adapt food textures to prevent aspiration and refer to a speech therapist if needed, in liaison with the physician.

  • The nurse checks blood pressure, pulse and treatment adherence (anticoagulants, antihypertensives), watches for warning signs and, in the event of a symptom suggesting a recurrence, mobilises our private ambulance service without delay and alerts the physician.

  • Yes. We train relatives in transfer techniques, in the prevention of falls and pressure sores, and in psychological support. The same employed nurse follows the case to ensure continuity.
