PRESENTATION TITLE Stroke Services Cheshire & Merseyside Dr Deborah Lowe Consultant Stroke Physician SCN Clinical Lead for Stroke
Why are we here? We all want to deliver high quality stroke care to our patients Most would support services at local Trust, but only if this is deliverable, affordable and sustainable How can we ensure that the majority of patients receive the best quality stroke care? What are we accepting as our core standards? Which services currently fall below that standard? What reconfigurations are needed within Cheshire & Merseyside to provide equitable access whilst not diluting quality of care?
