Four Family Treasures
Unite
Mutual support and understanding among family members.
Forgive
Unconditional sacrifice among family members.
Understand
Setting a common goal among family members.
Communicate
Communicating difficulties and feelings among family members.
Family Communication
More Encouragement
Family members should encourage rehabilitees to
set recovery goals,
proactively face changes brought on by the stroke,
and keep in touch with friends.
Less
Complaints
When rehabilitees refuse to quit bad habits or cooperate,
family members should avoid or minimize complaining.
More Acceptance
Family members should accept more the feelings of rehabilitees,
their occasional mood swings,
and sense of fatigue and inferiority
Less Silent Treatment
When rehabilitees make inappropriate statements or lose their temper,
family members should listen as much as possible,
and avoid giving silent treatment to the recovered patient.
Family Division of Labour
Family Raiser
Work outside and raise a
family.
Human Bonder
Bond the family tie and bring comfort and joy to family members.
Decision-Maker
Decide on everything within the
family.
Advisor
Ease doubts and give advice to family members.
Housekeeper

Caregiver

When each family member plays his/her family role well and works together through sound division of labour, the family can operate smoothly and ‘rise’ again.
