Transcript of Stroke Education Q I Initiative– BroMenn Healthcare October 2007.
BroMenn HealthcareNormal, Illinois
• BroMenn Regional Medical Center (BRMC)– 224 bed, full-service, teaching hospital – Level II trauma center with regional referral– Dedicated neuroscience unit– Inpatient rehabilitation
• Eureka Hospital (ECH)– 34 bed, critical access hospital
• Home Care & Hospice
Decision to Pursue Stroke Designation at BRMC
• To build on existing program strengths– Neuro, neurosurgical & neuro-
residency programs• Patient volume sufficient to
support a dedicated program– 200 strokes admitted annually– 100 TIAs admitted annually
Designation Objectives
• Promote a culture of interdisciplinary, patient-focused approach to stroke care across the care continuum
• Promote evidence-based practice• Maximize patient care outcomes• Continuous quality improvement

stroke
EMS is activated
Code Gray - Neurologist evaluation - NIHSS - Labs drawn - Imaging - TPA risk assessment
Location of the patient?
Is FAST Criteria met?

CVA - TIA
• We do not use a separate CareMap for TIA patients.
• CVA patients were over the 90% mark, but TIA patients were not receiving the education.
