Stroke caregiver

​

Stroke care is something very near and dear to Mike’s heart. His mother had a stroke at 28, he was only 6 weeks old.

 

Luckily, she is still with us, but this experience showed him how unexpected a stroke can happen, and how disconnected life after stroke can be for survivors. This experience drove him to pursue a career in healthcare and sparked a passion to bring change to the stroke continuum of care.
