Finding and accessing social services and community resources are a challenge for stroke survivors and care partners. The purpose of this systematic review was to identify and review interventions that aimed to increase access and use of such services and resources post stroke. A systematic review of the published literature was performed using MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and ProQuest Nursing and Allied Health (January 2008 to May 2020). Studies were included if they were quantitative designs and reported on outcomes of interventions addressing post-stroke access to social services or community resources. Results were synthesised narratively. 3566 titles and abstracts were reviewed. Ten articles met the inclusion criteria. The interventions included in this review varied in terms of target group, timing, and type of support provided (passive or active tailored information provision, referral service, navigation assistance). Outcome measures, for social service and community resource access, included discharge preparedness measures, service counts, observations, satisfaction evaluations, interviews, and open-ended questions. Overall, interventions demonstrated some improvements in information received and access to social services and community resources following stroke. Future research should focus on carrying out high quality studies that examine the effectiveness of various social service and community resource interventions, and on setting valid and reliable outcome measures.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONStroke survivors and care partners have unmet social service and community resource needs.Stroke survivors and care partners can benefit from interventions that provide information, referrals, and ongoing support to access services and resources.Clearly identifying social service and community resource needs is important for tailoring interventions to individual situations.Interventions should ideally be provided throughout the hospital stay, in acute care and rehabilitation, and continue on in the community.
