Organization Number: 03 0560152 Organization Name: Hope for Stroke Victims Address: 250 Duck Pond Drive Address: City: Wantagh State / Province: NY Zip / Post Code: 11793 Country: United States Phone: 1-516-804-8495 Ext: Fax: 1 Organization Email: hope4stroke@gmail.com Website Address: http://hope4stroke.com Detailed Description: Our mission statement is to bring stroke survivors, care givers together and help them on the road to recovery, make available information on technologies and treatments available on a world wide basis and be a forum for positive recovery and stroke survivors experiences. With a future goal of making physical therapy available at cost or free, for those who can not afford it and make that a growing interest to expand those services nationally on an ongoing basis. Up to 60% of stroke survivors suffer from depression, that impedes the persons ability to muster the long term dedication a stroke survivor needs to do over a long period of time to get those things they can back. Insurance the way it operates currently does not provide enough insurance over a long period of time, usually several weeks, then that is it, the patient is left to the number one reason for disability in the USA. Our objective is to reduce the amount of people on disability and return them to the work force.
