Reference Guides
We have developed a manual which will contain 16 reference guides, each of which addresses an area of stroke care. The reference guides have been developed based on information from a wide range of sources to represent the most up-to-date evidence. The literature searches to update the reference guides have been conducted in collaboration with staff at the University of Leeds Library Services.
The reference guides are being operationalised and evaluated in the system of care trial. Following an assessment to identify individual patient/carer needs, the system of care manual will enable stroke care co-ordinators to create individual goal plans for patients and carers.
How the LoTS care stroke system of care fits into plans for 6 week, 6 month and annual post stroke reviews is described on the NHS stroke improvement website. |
