This study aimed to determine whether interventions that use the Specific Thematic Nursing Care Action Modules (STNC-AM) platform improve patients' psychological health over a two-month period.
The STNC-AM platform that investigator present here is an educational program that integrates education and coaching. STNC-AM has six key aspects: stroke prevention, management of emotions, management of fatigue, physical activity, caregiver training, and integrative resources. Each scope contains detailed care guidance. The nurse coaching component was based on the six key aspects detailed above. This online platform can guide nurses' health education for the comprehensive care of stroke patients.

Illness Perception_change is being assessed
Investigators used the Illness Perception Questionnaire-Revised (IPQ-R) to evaluate stroke patients' positive illness representation. Investigators used the three positive domains (personal control, treatment control, and illness coherence) of illness representation to evaluate stroke patients' positive illness representation. Total scores ranged from 16 to 80 in each domain. High scores on all three dimensions (personal control, treatment control, and illness coherence) indicated a more positive illness representation.
Time frame: The data collection was conducted at three time points: first week (baseline; Time 1) of admission to the rehabilitation ward and then first month (Time 2) and second month (Time 3) follow-up after discharge.
Depression and Anxiety_change is being assessed
Investigators used the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to evaluate stroke patients' depression and anxiety.Total scores ranged from 0 to 21 in each domain, and higher scores indicated higher anxiety or depression.
Time frame: The data collection was conducted at three time points: first week (baseline; Time 1) of admission to the rehabilitation ward and then first month (Time 2) and second month (Time 3) follow-up after discharge.
Resilience_change is being assessed
Investigators used the Resilience Scale (RS) to evaluate stroke patients' resilience.Total scores ranged from 25 to 175, with higher scores as indicating greater resilience
Time frame: The data collection was conducted at three time points: first week (baseline; Time 1) of admission to the rehabilitation ward and then first month (Time 2) and second month (Time 3) follow-up after discharge.
