• Rapid response is crucial in managing stroke emergencies. Our healthcare team is trained to recognize stroke symptoms promptly and initiate emergency medical protocols. This includes assessing vital signs, performing neurological evaluations, and coordinating with emergency services for timely intervention.
2. Acute Stroke Treatment:
• Residents suspected of having a stroke receive immediate medical treatment based on established stroke protocols. This may include administering clot-busting medications (thrombolytics) or arranging for mechanical thrombectomy procedures to restore blood flow to the brain.
3. Monitoring and Neurological Assessment:
• Continuous monitoring of neurological status is conducted to assess the impact of the stroke and monitor for any changes in condition. Our healthcare professionals conduct regular assessments of motor function, speech, cognition, and sensory abilities to guide ongoing care.
4. Rehabilitation Services:
• Rehabilitation begins early in the stroke recovery process to promote physical and cognitive recovery. We offer specialized rehabilitation services, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, tailored to address specific deficits and maximize functional independence.
