Let me list the ways:
Doctors:
No protocols being followed or written up. It all seems to be 'winging it'. They really don't seem to have any idea what the hell is needed for stroke recovery. Proven by just writing three prescriptions to OT, PT and ST all saying the same thing; ET(Evaluate and Treat), dumping all the responsibility on the therapists. They have plausible deniability for why survivors don't recover by doing it this way. Blame the therapists for survivors not recovering.
Therapists:
No protocols being followed or written up. It all seems to be 'winging it'.
Hospitals:
They never list any statistics and results of their stroke care, they only list processes and guidelines. Those are fucking worthless to survivors.
Researchers:
Lots of them don't seem to understand previous research that has gone on before and don't write up what the current complete understanding is in the area they are researching.
Stroke associations:
These should be renamed Stroke doctor associations since I can see nothing for survivors there except for stroke groups and as pity parties to draw in donations.
Presidents of stroke associations:
They are doing the least possible; mainly just prevention press releases, nothing that might be difficult at all.
Boards of directors of stroke associations:
They do not seem to be specifying that the president and staff should be tackling all the difficult problems in stroke.
Or ANY BHAGs(Big Hairy Audacious Goals)
Survivors:
For decades survivors have not questioned their doctors why the hell they knew nothing about recovery and why the hospital has such poor recovery results.
Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,294 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke. DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
