Background Statement
The Rocky Mountain Stroke Center (RMSC) was founded in 1992 in response to a missing link in the continuum of stroke recovery. RMSC is a community organization in Colorado serving stroke families; the only one offering low cost rehab programs with a group specific young stroke survivors. The ten-member Board of Directors consists of healthcare professionals and community leaders who are all active in fundraising, community partnerships, and strategic planning. We offer many programs including neurological music therapy, physical therapy, pool therapy, mindfulness, individual counseling and others. The psychosocial support of our programs is profound as each stroke survivor finds new like-minded friends and learn they are not alone.
