| Summary: | Objectives The aim of this study was to explore and describe experiences of rehabilitation with F@ce 2.0 from the perspective of people with stroke.Design Qualitative inquiry was based on individual interviews at two time points, post-intervention and 6 months post-inclusion. Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis.Setting Home-based stroke rehabilitation in Sweden.Participants Twelve stroke survivors with mild to moderate stroke.Results Three themes and seven sub-themes were constructed. The main themes were ‘Setting personally relevant goals requires a trusting relationship’,‘ SMSs as a tool for person-centred rehabilitation’ and ‘Collaboration with the team is essential for resuming daily activities after stroke’.Conclusion Supporting goal achievement through SMS messages may increase motivation and awareness in stroke rehabilitation. The results, however, illustrate the importance of personal meetings in rehabilitation, both for setting relevant goals and for identifying goal achievement strategies.Trial registration number ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04351178; https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04351178. |
