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.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

NMMC's(North Mississippi Medical Center;Tupelo,MS) Rehabilitation Institute earns three-year accreditation

 

Big fucking whoopee.

I couldn't find any stroke standards at the CARF website - http://www.carf.org/home/
so with nothing public, this is completely fucking worthless. Because if this is all just doing processes with no measurement of results, then useless.

Three measurements will tell me if the stroke hospital is possibly not completely incompetent; DO YOU MEASURE ANYTHING? This is just hiding.

  1. tPA full recovery? Better than 12%?

  1. 30 day deaths? Better than competitors?

  1. rehab full recovery? Better than 10%?


You'll' want to know results so Call that hospital president( Whoever that is?)
and demand to know what the RESULTS are; tPA efficacy, 30 day deaths, 100% recovery. Because there is no point in going to that hospital if they are not willing to publish results.

The latest invalid chest thumping here:

NMMC's(North Mississippi Medical Center;Tupelo,MS) Rehabilitation Institute earns three-year accreditation

Tupelo • CARF International recently announced that ’s Rehabilitation Institute has been accredited for a period of three years for its Inpatient Rehabilitation Programs-Hospital (Adult) and Inpatient Rehabilitation Programs-Hospital: Stroke Specialty Program (Adult).

During this survey NMMC received no recommendations, which happens to only 3% of the facilities surveyed by the international accrediting body.

This accreditation decision represents the highest level of accreditation that can be given to an organization and shows the organization’s substantial conformance to the CARF standards. An organization receiving a three-year accreditation has put itself through a rigorous peer review process. It has demonstrated to a team of surveyors during an on-site visit its commitment to offering programs and services that are measurable, accountable and of the highest quality.

NMMC’s Rehabilitation Institute is a 28-bed unit on the west wing of NMMC-Tupelo’s first floor. When an injury or illness requires additional time in the hospital to focus on recovery, NMMC’s Rehabilitation Institute helps patients strengthen physical, cognitive, psychological, social and vocational abilities.

CARF is an independent, nonprofit accrediting body whose mission is to promote the quality, value and optimal outcomes of services through a consultative accreditation process and continuous improvement services that center on enhancing the lives of the persons served. Founded in 1966 as the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, and now known as CARF International, the accrediting body establishes consumer-focused standards to help organizations measure and improve the quality of their programs and services.
