And this is one of my local hospitals, I guess I'm screwed if I have another stroke.
I wouldn't go there if all they are offering is 'care'; NOT RECOVERY!
Anytime I see 'care' in any stroke press release I know the stroke medical world is not
willing to disclose actual results because they are so fucking bad, it
wouldn't look good, so misdirection is used. Don't fall for that
misdirection! By touting 'care' they are not telling you about results or recovery which survivors want! Survivors
don't care about your 'care'; you FUCKING BLITHERING IDIOTS;
they want 100% recovery! Why aren't you providing that?
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 medical world is possibly not
completely incompetent; DO YOU MEASURE ANYTHING? I would start cleaning
the hospitals 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(whomever 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 partnership 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 'care' guidelines yourself. Survivors want RECOVERY not 'care'
