Dr Brown joined us back in season 2 episode 3 (Oct 2021) when she first formed Stroke OT, her CT based non profit for opening long term care access and providing essential health and wellness services to stroke survivors and caregivers.

Our guest has worked with the stroke community for 27 years. Her expertise areas in stroke rehabilitation include Neuro-developmental Treatment, the Lifestyle Redesign® model, Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy, and Saebo orthotics and most recently Vivistim. In addition she has been a clinical instructor for university students for the past 5+ years.

More on the mission of StrokeOT:

StrokeOT, Inc. is a nonprofit organization of healthcare professionals and volunteers dedicated to providing long-term support for stroke and brain injury survivors. They offer virtual and in-person groups that focus on health, exercise, and lifestyle education to advance stroke recovery. They understand that recovery occurs throughout a lifetime when the brain and the body are in action. By creating a community of support, they are improving the lives of those experiencing health care and financial inequalities.
