Physical activity and dietary-related behaviors are important for enhancing health and quality of life among adults with stroke, yet the prevalence of these healthy behaviors is low. In this qualitative study, adults with stroke identified how stroke-related physical, cognitive, and sensory deficits impact performance of these healthy behaviors and identified specific adaptive and accessible equipment and compensatory strategies for overcoming these barriers that can be utilized in clinical practice.
