slap him in the face? I am no neuro physio but is attention a problem post-cva? Part and parcel of the problem? Is it "neglect" in that he doesn't notice the side of the CVA dysfunction?
As for activities and exercise, i am not good on these CVA pts - i would be making him aware of the problem and getting him to check himself frequently... sorry if i am not much help...
