Deans' stroke musings: Survey aimed at improving stroke services launched

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.

Survey aimed at improving stroke services launched

FYI. So the hospitals have no fucking clue what they are delivering or the results they are getting.

An island-wide survey being carried out to better understand stroke rehabilitation services has been launched.

Evolution Healing Centre, a physiotherapy rehabilitation clinic, is now distributing the online survey which can be accessed here.

It is aimed at anyone who lives in Bermuda who has experienced a stroke incident and had stroke rehabilitation on the island.

Kim Watkins, a senior physiotherapist with the Evolution Healing Centre, said: “We believe that this survey is an important first step in gathering data that can be used to improve services.

“There is a global push to improve rehabilitation services and Bermuda has the opportunity to take a strong lead given its size and ability to leverage healthcare practitioners in the areas of need.”

The Ministry of Health has identified stroke as the second leading cause of death in Bermuda in 2019 and the third leading cause of disability in Bermuda.
