Stroke Recovery & Neuro Rehab Navigation

After a Stroke, the System Moves Fast. Someone Has to Keep Up.

The first days after a stroke are a blur of rounds, scans, and specialists. And then, abruptly, a discharge planner is standing at the bed asking where your loved one is going next. Rehab hospital or skilled nursing? How many therapy hours? Is home even possible? These decisions shape the entire recovery, they’re made under time pressure, and the people pushing for speed do not have to live with the result.

Angie Galatas spent 30 years as a clinician in stroke and neurological rehabilitation before founding Medical Advocacy Plus. She knows what good rehab looks like from the inside, and she knows exactly how discharge decisions get made when no one is watching.

What we take over

• Discharge strategy while the patient is still admitted, because the leverage disappears the day they leave
• Honest evaluation of rehab and SNF options: therapy intensity, staffing reality, and track record, not the glossy tour
• Coordination between neurology, rehab medicine, therapy teams, and primary care through every transition
• Presence at care conferences, so the family’s questions get asked and answered on the record
• Follow-through at home: therapy schedules, home health, equipment, and the follow-ups that prevent readmission
• Plain-language translation for the family at every step: what the deficits mean, what progress should look like, what to push for

Recovery is won or lost in the transitions.
