    Abstract

    ![CDATA[Background: Emotional problems occur regularly after stroke and are distressing, but also impact on functional outcome. The UK experience is that there are insufficient resources for psychologist to review every patient, nor is it felt this is necessary. On this account a stepped approach to psychological care has been developed, encompassing prevention and intervention, stepped according to need. Content: The UK stepped approach to psychological care after stroke will be described including attention to appropriate interventions at various levels and when to refer on. Outcome: Attendees will be expected to gain an understanding of a stepped approach to psychological care after stroke and be able to consider its potential for application within their own service setting.]]
