Big fucking whoopee.
But you tell us NOTHING ABOUT RESULTS.
They remind us they 'care' about us multiple times but never tell us
how many 100% recovered. You have to ask yourself why they are hiding
their incompetency by not disclosing recovery results. ARE THEY THAT FUCKING BAD?
Three measurements will tell me if the stroke hospital is possibly not
completely incompetent; DO YOU MEASURE ANYTHING? I would start cleaning
the hospital by firing the board of directors, you can't let
incompetency continue for years at a time.
There is no quality here if you don't measure the right things.
-
tPA full recovery? Better than 12%?
-
30 day deaths? Better than competitors?
rehab full recovery? Better than 10%?
rehab full recovery? Better than 10%?
You'll want to know results so call that hospital president(Whoever that is) 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.
In my opinion this cert allows stroke hospitals to continue with their tyranny of low expectations and justify their complete failure to get survivors 100% recovered. Prove me wrong, I dare you in my stroke addled mind. If your stroke hospital goal is not 100% recovery you don't have a functioning stroke hospital.
All you ever get from hospitals are that they are following guidelines; these are way too static to be of any use. With thousands of pieces of stroke research yearly it would take a Ph.D. level research analyst to keep up, create protocols, and train the doctors and therapists in their use.
If your stroke hospital doesn't have that, you don't have a well functioning stroke hospital, you have a dinosaur.

up on the guidelines yourself.

The latest invalid chest thumping here:
Trinity Health receives stroke quality achievement award
Trinity Health has received the American Heart Association’s “Get with the Guidelines” stroke quality achievement award.
The program focuses on making sure stroke patients receive appropriate care based on nationally recognized, research-based guidelines designed to save lives and reduce disability.
To receive a quality achievement award, hospitals must demonstrate compliance with a prescribed percentage of quality indicators for at least 12 consecutive months.
Dr. Scott Knutson, Trinity Health chief of Medical Staff, said the Silver Plus award confirms the high level of care that he sees every day at Trinity Health.
“We’ve built a program here that can treat patients fast and effectively, but it doesn’t matter how good a job we do if people don’t act. They need to come in right away.” Knutson said.
