Great input everyone. I must concur that there are lots of things that you can do. The ebrsr is a terrific resource for evidence based intervention for stroke. I really don't have much to add other than using a watch with an alarm and or hourly chime to be placed on the left UE. This will encourage him to attend to the left arm even if it is to locate an annoying watch alarm that he keeps on hearing. He also has to engage in a bit of bilateral movement to turn the alarm off (if he will initiate this). This movement would be more "automatic" as far as his initiation to attempt to move the left arm to meet the right arm to silence the watch alarm. Hope this helps too.
