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.

New Caernarfon stroke unit ‘goes long way’ to helping patients

Not long enough, you don't even tell us how many of your patients got to 100% recovery.  As  such, I consider your unit a failure for not even having the proper goal for stroke survivors. Your tyranny of low expectations is appalling. 

New Caernarfon stroke unit ‘goes long way’ to helping patients

The new stroke rehab unit is open to patients at Ysbyty Eryri in Caernarfon and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board hope that it will aid the recovery of stroke patients. (NOT GOOD ENOUGH! Survivors want 100% recovery. GET THERE!)

It is one of three new rehabilitation centres across North Wales.

The unit has been praised by Arfon MS Siân Gwenllian, who visited the facility.

“This unit’s comprehensive treatment is important. It gives patients a proper chance of recovery. (NOT GOOD ENOUGH! Survivors want 100% recovery. GET THERE!)

“There is a great focus on the long term rehabilitation, strengthened by a host of medical professionals from different fields.

“I had the opportunity to meet one individual in particular - Peter Perkins of Amlwch was clearly emotional as he gave an account of the importance of this facility, and how grateful he was of their care.“

The consultant therapist-lead unit’s holistic approach to recovery is assisted by a range of multidisciplinary specialists, including physiotherapists, nurses, doctors, psychologists, speech and language therapists, dieticians and occupational therapists, will give patients a higher chance of recovery.

Ms Gwenllian added: “It gives people who have been through a traumatising experience hope for recovery and a new start.

“This new facility in the town of Caernarfon goes a long way in helping stroke patients regain their independence and confidence.

“I wish to thank the health board and all the staff involved in this initiative for making a real difference to the lives of people in our area.”
