Authors' objectives:
To evaluate the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a targeted course of OT in maintaining functional activity and reducing further health risks from inactivity for UK care home residents living with stroke-related disabilities.

A 3-month individualised course of OT showed no benefit in maintaining functional activity in an older care home population with stroke-related disabilities.
