We conducted a survey to document the rehabilitation services available to clients aged 65 years and older who had suffered a stroke. In all, respondents – gleaned from 295 resources located in three health regions in the province of Québec – completed a postal questionnaire describing the services that they offer, in terms of type of intervention (related to nine capabilities and seven areas of social participation) and type of services (evaluation, rehabilitation, and support). The results show that most rehabilitation services offered to older people with stroke address motor skills and mobility. Somewhat unexpectedly, for four capability-related interventions and two social-participation-related interventions, there appear to be more active rehabilitation services offered in regions with rural areas than in metropolitan regions.
