Brief Summary: Take Charge is a novel community-based treatment for stroke developed to harness a persons self-determination Two prior clinical trials with 572 stroke survivors showed that Take Charge improves quality of life independence and social participation up to a year after stroke Take Charge has also been shown to be overall cost-saving to the health system and is a useful adjunct to standard care after stroke

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic a lot of healthcare has moved into a telehealth approach The simplicity of Take Charge may lend itself to being effective if delivered by telehealth allowing greater access for people with stroke in rural communities Improving the care we provide in underserved regions of the country is important to help the health of Canadians

We are proposing a new study working closely with the researchers who ran the previous Take Charge studies

The goal of this feasibility clinical trial is to learn about Tele-Take Charge in adults with stroke who live in Southern Alberta The main questions it aims to answer are

is delivering Take Charge by telehealth feasible
is Take Charge by telehealth acceptable to this population

Participants will meet with facilitators online via Zoom at 4 to 16 weeks after stroke and be randomized to receive either

two Tele-Take Charge sessions six weeks apart
one control tele-education session

Researchers will compare the Tele-Take Charge and control groups to see if there are any differences in outcome measures these differences will help researchers to estimate the number of participants that will be needed for a larger multi-centred effectiveness trial
Detailed Description: For adults diagnosed with acute stroke who are discharged to community living non-institutionalized we wish to evaluate whether delivering two Take Charge sessions by telehealth is 1 acceptable to the population of Southern Alberta and 2 feasible to do

Subjects will be randomly assigned to receive either two Tele-Take Charge sessions or one tele-education session Life After Stroke video by telehealth the active control

The primary feasibility outcome will be recruitment rate Secondary outcomes will be measured by a blinded outcomes assessor at 6 and 12 months either by e-questionnaire or by telephone

Those who received Tele-Take Charge will also be asked to complete an acceptability questionnaire and will be invited to take part in an in-depth interview about their experience as part of a qualitative substudy
