- Increased monitoring and assessment of statewide data across the stroke continuum of care and within proposed service areas for those who have experienced a stroke and those at the highest risk of stroke due to undiagnosed or uncontrolled hypertension.
Strategy 2
- Increased number of individuals with identified social services and support needs referred to those services using standardized procedures among the care team, to include both clinical and community-based entities and individuals, across the stroke continuum of care.
- Expanded collection and use of data across the stroke continuum of care to improve efficiency and quality of care among the care team, to include both clinical and community-based entities and individuals.
- Increased number of individuals served by clinics, health systems, and in community settings that use care teams comprised of both clinical and community expertise to prevent stroke.
Strategy 3
- Increased number of newly established and strengthened partnerships that provide support for those who have experienced a stroke and those at the highest risk of stroke across the stroke continuum of care.
