Aims: Community rehabilitation is a key component of health services within stroke care. Ongoing challenges exist as to how to best capture outcomes for these services, especially considering the multi-faceted service delivery and flexible focus on individual need. A goal setting tool, such as the multidisciplinary goal attainment measurement (MGAM), may be useful to objectively measure client outcomes that are meaningful and relevant to individuals within this complex environment.

Methods:Pre and post goal outcome data was collected by multidisciplinary team members with stroke survivors, across the domains of impairment, activity/participation, and knowledge/information. These pre and post scores were compared with each other, as well as a measure of everyday functioning.Results: Clinically significant average change scores and statistically significant changes pre and post intervention were found across all domains on the MGAM. There were
