About
Stacey George is a leading researcher in stroke rehabilitation, with a focus on patient-centered care and evidence-based interventions for post-stroke recovery. Her work critically examines how stroke survivors perceive and engage with rehabilitation, particularly as the field shifts toward technology-driven therapies like robotics and computer games. In her highly cited 2011 study, "Early rehabilitation management after stroke: What do stroke patients prefer?" (29 citations), George explored patient preferences for rehabilitation intensity and modalities, providing essential insights for designing acceptable and effective treatment programs. More recently, her 2024 systematic review, "Non-pharmacological interventions to treat mood disturbances post-stroke" (3 citations), addresses a critical gap in clinical practice by evaluating treatments for depression, anxiety, and pseudobulbar affect—common yet often undertreated sequelae of stroke. This work helps clinicians navigate uncertainty around non-drug options, directly informing evidence-based care. George’s research bridges patient experience and clinical innovation, ensuring that advances in rehabilitation technology are grounded in what stroke survivors truly need and value. Her contributions are vital for improving both functional and emotional outcomes after stroke.
