Stroke Ward Care

Stroke Ward Care is an interactive clinical pathway and revision tool for the acute management of ischaemic stroke on the ward. It guides healthcare professionals through eight structured steps, from stroke unit admission to discharge, with the checklists, targets and decision aids used in day-to-day stroke care.

IMPORTANT
Stroke Ward Care is an educational and training reference for qualified healthcare professionals. It is not a medical device and is not a substitute for clinical judgement, local protocols, senior review or formal assessment of an individual patient. Always confirm drug doses and management decisions against current authoritative sources and local guidelines before acting. No patient data is collected or stored.
