Closely linked with the HSF Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations, TACLS is an evidence-based resource that provides guidance around how to provide safe care for people who have had a stroke and are living in community and long-term care settings. The goal of TACLS is to provide information to support healthcare providers as they work together with people who have had a stroke to help them achieve optimal outcomes, regain their best level of functioning, and live meaningful lives. This resource is written primarily for healthcare providers such as Personal Support Workers, Health Care Aides, Home Care Attendants, Rehabilitation Assistants, and others who are providing paid care, in any setting across the continuum of care, to people who have had a stroke. The focus is on rehabilitation and recovery. This resource replaces the HSF resource Tips and Tools for Everyday Living.
