Older adults with mild to moderate stroke or transient ischaemic attack often experience anxiety, depression and reduced social participation in their daily lives. Interventions addressing the long-term consequences of stroke are needed.To describe the process of developing a person-centred lifestyle intervention for older adults with stroke. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure was used to develop the content of the intervention. Lifestyle groups were implemented at senior centres once a week for nine months. Content analysis was used to analyse the intervention content. The study demonstrates the development of intervention following stroke, addressing its process, structure, and components. Whether the person-centred process increases the potential for enhancing participants' social participation and well-being should be evaluated in future studies.
