| Popis: | Introduction: The North Dakota Mission: Lifeline Stroke program is a 3-year initiative which aims to improve statewide stroke systems of care. Due to complexities in recognizing and treating stroke patients, effective education of prehospital and hospital health care providers on guideline-based assessments and treatment methods were identified as an essential intervention. In person lectures, conferences, workshops, stroke simulation trainings, online courses, webinars, and a stroke certification program were deployed throughout the project. Purpose: The purpose of the post-education survey was to determine the impact, value, and success of different types of education provided during the project. Methods: North Dakota healthcare professionals (n=221) completed a 20-question online survey about their experiences participating in the stroke trainings provided from 2017 to 2020. Results: Survey respondents consisted of 76 Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers and 145 hospital-based healthcare professionals. The majority of hospital-based staff respondents were nurses (80.1%), while most EMS-based respondents were paramedics or EMTs (75.0%). Half of all respondents (49.8%) participated in 2 or more educational offerings. Respondents were asked to rank the educational offerings in which they participated in by order of the benefit to their everyday practice. The two highest ranking educational offerings were the Advanced Stroke Life Support Class (mean rank=1.6) and Simulation in Motion (SIM) ND (mean rank=2.3). More than 90% of respondents stated that these trainings were extremely or very applicable to their everyday practice. When asked about the overall impact of all the educational offerings they participated in, almost all (92.6%) respondents indicated they agree that because of the trainings they have a better understanding of the key issues related to caring for stroke patients. Conclusions: Overall, the comprehensive survey provides concrete evidence and feedback that multi-modal education campaigns are well-received and effective in furthering awareness of guideline-based stroke assessments and treatment methods. Activities with a kinesthetic learning approach were found to be especially well-received. |
