Results: The results show five main themes including 1) Maintaining Heart Health ; 2) Maintaining Body Hygiene ; 3) Maintaining Clothing Cleanliness ; 4) Maintaining Home Cleanliness ; and 5) Maintaining Yard/Environment Cleanliness . Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate that the local wisdom of Poda Na Lima can serve as a valuable guide in secondary stroke prevention, contributing to improved health outcomes among stroke survivors.
