The main question it aim to answer is \* Does a health belief model-based fall prevention education program have a positive effect on health literacy, physical function, fall risk, fear of falling, and quality of life in patients with chronic stroke? Researchers will compare the intervention group, who will receive the health belief model-based fall prevention education program, to the control group, who will receive their usual intervention in the physical therapy clinic, to see if the health belief model-based fall prevention education program has an effect on health literacy and physical function, fall rate, fall risk, fear of falling, and quality of life in patients with chronic stroke. The clinical trial will be conducted in four phases; each participant will take around 6 weeks and will receive two in-person individual educational sessions based on the health belief model (HBM).
