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.

Next Generation of Stroke Rehabilitation Centres

 Until you name them correctly they will barely do any good at all. Rehab means activities, not necessarily recovery. If you named them recovery centers and measured success at that, that would match what survivors want.

Next Generation of Stroke Rehabilitation Centres

Stroke survivors usually stay in rehab for a long time thus, the rehab has lots of potential to improve stroke survivors' recovery. The "Next Generation of Stroke Rehabilitation Centres" competition challenges students to design a rehabilitation center for 30 stroke survivors with new and ambitious ideas. This competition aims to optimize rehabilitation design based on research outcomes to meet stroke survivors' needs better as they recover.

This student design competition has been launched and organized by the International Union of Architects (UIA) and the UIA Public Health Group, with the collaboration of the NOVELL Redesign team. The competition is sponsored by UIA and the Australian Health Design Council.

The competition is open to full-time students worldwide; please check the competition brief for more details. The deadline for registration is on 15th March 2023, and the deadline for submission of entries is on 15th April 2023. Also, competitors are free to select a site that is appropriate for a stroke rehabilitation facility.

Prizes are as listed below. Also, the NOVELL Redesign team will invite the prize winners to become co-researchers at the NOVELL Redesign project.
1st prize: 5,000€+ a certificate
2nd prize: 3,000€ + a certificate
3rd prize: 2,000€ + a certificate
