| Popis: | Many academic and community hospitals have obtained, or are considering obtaining, stroke center certification. Participation in structured quality improvement programs that also incorporate an objective assessment has been shown to improve outcomes and foster team building. Although obtaining certification can be challenging and costly, it can provide a framework to ensure hospitals deliver high- level, evidence-based stroke care. For the intensive care unit nurse, awareness and participation in the certification programs process is an important part of professional nursing practice. |
