Please do retweet this important article about the need to address the unwarranted variation in access to life after stroke services across the UK. Here’s the @TheStrokeAssoc report we published today to coincide with #WorldStrokeDay https://t.co/xmt3fR5KGg

I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed by this. There’s nothing particularly new or specific, lacks ambition, unclear on how successful implementation will be measured. Plus focus is on post admission -which isn’t the only time people need rehab. Is there more detail to come?
Dr Richard Francis of @TheStrokeAssoc said: "A saliva test would be a massive step forward in pre-hospital diagnosis for #stroke and help people to get the right diagnosis, to get to the right hospital for the right treatment and in the quickest time" https://t.co/ps3mioNwwI
