Footwear for Someone Who Has Had A Stroke

Footwear for someone who has had a Stroke needs to be comfortable and easy to put on and remove. Feet can become swollen if you or someone you care for are immobile for any period. This is highly likely in the period following a Stroke.

Your footwear also needs to fit well and have a good grip to prevent the risk of having a fall when starting to mobilise again.
