Ambulance stroke talk

If you are anywhere close to this in the UK, you need to go and ask what objective methods they will be using to determine stroke. Anything else is just incompetency, maybe one of these fourteen.

 You do want to get tPA if at all possible, don't you?
Well then, do something about it!

People can find out about the ambulance service’s work to manage stroke patients in Rotherham on Tuesday.
During the talk at the Carlton Park Hotel, Jacqui Crossley, Yorkshire Ambulance Service’s assistant clinical director, will discuss the latest developments in pre-hospital stroke care.
They include how staff look after people, from the initial emergency call for help to being assessed, treated and transferred to a hospital with specialist stroke services.
People can also find out more about the ambulance service’s bid to become an NHS foundation trust, and apply to become a member.
