SMARTease Trial: Evaluating Stroke Help Distance Interventions to Improve Cognitive Performance Post-Stroke

The strategy intervention is a 16-week program during which a trained rehabilitation coach speaks by telephone to the stroke participant and their caregiver twice a week (one approximately 45-minute 'training' call and one approximately 15-minute 'update' call). Rehabilitation discussions during the training calls will follow a detailed protocol and focus each week on the stroke education and cognitive strategy training information provided in each section of the manual provided to the participants.
