NHS Improvement � Delivering tomorrow�s improvement agenda for the NHS

Community Stroke Resource

The Community Stroke Resource brings together and shares the learning and information the Stroke Improvement Programme has gathered so far about community stroke services. It comprises a collection of material including evidence from literature and research, business cases, inspirational presentations and documentation related to community stroke services.  The information has been organised into 12 areas and is aligned closely with Quality Marker 10 of the National Stroke Strategy. It is designed to support innovative practice and the sharing of knowledge across rehabilitation.

The resource can be used by anyone including those involved directly with stroke survivors and carers in the community and people interested in the development of new services or working to improve existing community stroke services.
