Louise White sits in and asks for your experience of post stroke care in Scotland.

Louise White sits in. Andrew Marr's wife has criticised the level of care available to people who have had a stroke, once they leave hospital. In your experience, do you agree?

The wife of the BBC journalist Andrew Marr has criticised the level of care available to people who have had a stroke, once they leave hospital. Jackie Ashley, a Guardian columnist, has written a blog about caring for her husband in which she praises the NHS - but criticises community care.


Louise asks for your own experience of post stroke care.

To what extent does the level of care for a stroke survivor change after they leave hospital?
And if you are the carer for someone who has had a stroke; what kind of support do you receive and is it enough?
