Key Points

  • To explore how healthcare professionals support stroke survivors in developing self-management skills within inpatient rehabilitation.
  • Qualitative descriptive service evaluation conducted in Ireland.
  • Semi-structured interviews with 14 healthcare professionals from a stroke rehabilitation team.
  • Inductive qualitative content analysis of the interview data.
  • Clinicians recognized self-management as crucial but reported varying confidence in delivering SMS.
  • Key SMS components were informally integrated but inconsistently applied, influenced by patient complexity.
  • Interdisciplinary collaboration faced barriers like role ambiguity and inadequate training, affecting post-discharge self-management.
