N2 - BACKGROUND/AIMS: Dental disease is highly prevalent among stroke survivors, 48% may have untreated tooth decay and 61% may have gum disease. [1]Little is known about the experiences of stroke survivors with regard to their oral health care; there is a need to identify barriers and facilitators to oral self-care behaviours and access to community services after stroke. The aim this study was two-fold: 1. to use qualitative methods to explore these experiences in depth with community dwelling stroke survivors and relevant health and social care professionals (HCPs); and 2. to develop prototypical interventions to address the needs of stroke-survivors and their carers.PRESENTATION: This presentation provides a visual account of the set of prototype intervention components developed in the project - providing a Toolkit of approaches to increase attention-to and take-up of mouthcare after stroke. Some interventions address experiences soon after admission to hospital, whilst others help those discharged maintain good behaviours and access appropriate care from dental practice. Drawing on theory-informed intervention development best-practice, all integrate a curated selection of behaviour-change techniques known to have a higher likelihood of effectiveness.IMAGES: Two additional images are provided of the collection of intervention prototypes produced in the project. The first shows elements used on-the-ward. The second shows elements for use in-the-community setting.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: We are especially grateful to all those who made this research possible - our participants. A big thank you to the 23 Stroke Survivors (and their families), and the 19 Health and Social Care Professionals who contributed their time and expertise.Full list or researchers participating in the STOPtoolkit study:Lucy O'Malley1, Rachael Powell1, Sharon Hulme1,2, Matthew Lievesley3, Wendy Westoby4, Jess Zadik2, Audrey Bowen1, Paul Brocklehurst5, Craig J.
