Anchor Health serves stroke survivors across New York. Medicaid accepted. Care starts within days. Call us: 718-532-2060
A stroke changes everything. But it does not have to mean a nursing facility or doing it alone. Thousands of New York families have found a better path: professional in-home stroke rehabilitation support, covered by Medicaid, in the comfort of home.
Our TBI home care program is designed for survivors under age 65. Not sure if you qualify? Fill out the form and we will help you find out.
A stroke happens when blood flow to part of the brain is cut off, either by a clot or by bleeding. Without oxygen, brain cells begin dying within minutes. Depending on where the stroke occurs, it can affect movement, speech, memory, swallowing, and personality.
Recovery is not about the brain "going back to normal." It is about the brain building new pathways around damaged areas, a process called neuroplasticity. This takes time, consistency, and the right environment. Home is often the best place for that to happen.
Below are some of the most common effects stroke survivors experience as they recover.
Often on one side of the body, affecting arm, leg, or face
Difficulty finding words, speaking clearly, or understanding others
Confusion, forgetfulness, and trouble concentrating
Depression, anxiety, mood swings, and personality shifts
Hospital stabilization and initial assessment of deficits. The brain is in crisis mode and needs rest.
The most critical window. The brain is most responsive to therapy and routine. This is when consistent in-home support makes the biggest difference.
Progress continues but more slowly. Ongoing support, structure, and companionship help prevent regression and maintain quality of life.
Managing personal care, medications, mobility, and emotional wellbeing requires ongoing support that a trained caregiver provides every day.
Whether you are right in the middle of discharge planning or have been managing stroke recovery at home for months, we are here to help. Fill out the form and a care advisor will reach out to discuss your options, no pressure, no obligation.
Medicaid covered in most cases. No out-of-pocket cost for eligible New York families.
TBI program for adults under 65. If your loved one is under 65, they may qualify for our specialized stroke recovery program.
Care placed within days, not weeks. We understand the early recovery window is critical.
We handle everything: Medicaid paperwork, caregiver matching, and ongoing coordination.

Research consistently shows that stroke survivors recover better in familiar environments. Recognizing their own surroundings reduces confusion, supports memory, and lowers anxiety, all of which directly support brain healing.
The brain rebuilds faster when surrounded by meaningful, recognizable cues from everyday life at home.
Unlike a facility where care is shared, your loved one has a dedicated caregiver focused entirely on them.
Every stroke is different. Our caregivers adapt to your loved one's specific deficits, goals, and daily routines.
Depression affects nearly half of stroke survivors. Consistent companionship and emotional support is not optional. It is medical.
Many families tell us they wish they had reached out sooner. They were managing alone for months before they realized covered in-home care was available to them all along.
Anchor Health Care Team, New YorkCaring for a stroke survivor is one of the most demanding roles a family member can take on. It affects your job, your sleep, your own health, and your relationships. Caregiver burnout is real, and it ultimately hurts the person you are trying to help.
A professional in-home caregiver does not replace the love of a family. It gives that family the ability to be present as a son, daughter, or spouse, rather than a full-time medical aide. That distinction matters for everyone's wellbeing.
Get caregiver supportYou cannot pour from an empty cup. Our caregivers step in so your family can rest, recharge, and be fully present when it matters most.
We stay in communication with therapists, physicians, and discharge planners so the full care picture is connected and nothing falls through the cracks.
Questions do not always come up during business hours. Our team is available and responsive so your family is never left without support.
These are real families from across New York who found help after a stroke through Anchor Health Home Care.
After my father had his stroke we did not know where to turn. Anchor Health handled the Medicaid paperwork completely and had a caregiver in place within days. My father is recovering at home and doing better than we ever expected.
My mother had a stroke at 58. We had no idea home care like this existed for people under 65. The caregiver they matched us with truly understands stroke recovery and has been incredible from day one.
I was my husband's only caregiver for six months before I found Anchor Health. I was exhausted and honestly not doing well myself. Having a professional caregiver come in has given both of us our lives back.
Anchor Health's TBI and stroke recovery home care program is designed for New York residents under the age of 65. If your loved one is 65 or older, please reach out and we will help connect you with the right program for their needs.
