       Taking someone out of a very supportive environment such as a
       stroke unit by facilitating early discharge has a number of
       risks and if done inappropriately has the potential to have a
       negative impact on rehabilitation and decrease quality of care.
       To mitigate these following processes are completed, or are in
       place, before discharge home:
       -
       -
       or team coordinator
       -
       is suitable for discharge equipment is installed to enable the
       enabling care team to assist in personal and daily tasks, and
       also to provide adequate support to facilitate independent
       functioning at home discharge is facilitated by Stroke REDS who
       have a track record of ensuring all risks are minimised as much
       as possible before discharge home.
       -
       discharges or patients with stroke that are particularly at
       risk.
