Background: According to recent data, stroke ranks as the second most prominent contributor to both mortality and disability on a global scale. there has been no comprehensive synthesis of qualitative studies pertaining to caregiver guidance for home-based stroke patients utilizing wheelchairs. Objective of this study is to examine the fundamental principles employed by caregivers in the provision of care for wheelchair-bound patients within a home setting. Method: We conducted focus groups and in-depth interviews with key informant multidisciplinary health professionals (n=17). The interview guide describes center care patients, a multidisciplinary approach, and explores the exercise of a patient using a wheelchair. Data was coded and reviewed using an analysis framework with NVivo software. This study was reported according to COREQ guidelines (consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research) Result: Eight main themes emerged from the data analysis: Patient Center care, Multidisciplinary approach, Creativity making tools Family experience, Selection of an effective wheelchair, Room matters, The meaning of therapy, Effective moves, Precise count during practice.Conclusion: Carers possess the capacity to address the issue of limited accessibility to patient rehabilitation services through the utilization of wheelchair self-help applications. The primary challenges faced by carers encompass various aspects, including the implementation of Patient Centered Care, adoption of a Multidisciplinary Approach, appropriate selection of wheelchairs that are effective, understanding the significance of therapy.
