Survey on fatigue management (additional information in the links)
Letter from Professor Avril Drummond from the University of Nottingham on a study on post-stroke fatigue and other topics.
Dear colleagues,
Apologies for a mass email!
We have been funded by the UK Stroke Association to do a survey on fatigue management in the UK- both post stroke fatigue and for other conditions. To date, the response has been good, but we want to have a final push in the last month.
We need more medics, more psychologists, and more nurses- but are also keen to have more OTs and PTs if possible. We also need more clinicians from Scotland, Wales, and N.Ireland!
If you have not done so already, please would you complete the survey below and/or pester your mates?
Many thanks indeed.
With best wishes,
Avril
(on behalf of the NotFAST2 – Nottingham Fatigue after stroke- team)

Survey on goal setting with stroke survivors with aphasia
Please see the letter and links below for more details
Dear OPSYRIS members,
This is a gentle reminder to consider participating in our survey about goal setting with stroke survivors with aphasia. The survey is open now and closes on Tuesday 13th October 2020. Please see further information and survey link below.
We are conducting a survey to find out how healthcare professionals set goals with stroke survivors with aphasia and the training and support they have received. Your participation will help us to improve the rehabilitation experiences of stroke survivors with aphasia and the support available to healthcare professionals in future. We would very much appreciate your help!
You can take part if you are:
· a healthcare professional (e.g. occupational therapist, physiotherapist, speech and language therapist, social worker, psychologist, dietician, rehabilitation/healthcare/therapy assistant)
· providing rehabilitation to stroke survivors in any setting
· setting goals with stroke survivors
· based in Ireland, the UK, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia
The survey is ethically approved, takes 10-15 minutes to complete, and closes on 13th October.
