Stroke Support Services

At California Pacific Medical Center, our goal is to reduce stroke risk and lessen its impact on the lives of our patients and their families. We offer opportunities to learn about stroke prevention and how to reduce your risk of stroke. We also offer support groups for stroke patients and their caregivers.

Stroke Prevention Education

There are two groups who benefit from our stroke prevention programs. We offer classes and support groups to lower stroke risk in people who have had a stroke or transient ischemic attack (also called a TIA). We also offer educational programs for people who are at risk for a stroke, including anyone with diabetes, prediabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerides or other conditions that increase stroke risk. Learn more about preventing stroke, and "BE FAST" identifying stroke symptoms.

Smoking Cessation Classes

Cigarette smoking is a leading risk factor of stroke. We offer smoking cessation classes at California Pacific Medical Center to help you quit. For more information, call (415) 600-3471.

Stroke Support Groups

Connecting with others who have experienced strokes can be especially helpful during recovery and beyond. We offer a number of support groups, special events and social gatherings to give stroke survivors and their caregivers the opportunity to be with others who understand what they’re going through and to share ideas and experiences.

Caregiver Support Groups

We provide support groups that allow caregivers to connect with others sharing the experience of caring for a loved one who has experienced a stroke or requires care for another life-limiting disability.

Stress Reduction

Stress affects all of us, but for those at risk of stroke or dealing with a stroke’s effects, learning how to manage and reduce stress can be extremely helpful.
