Improving hospital stroke care
Date exercise ended - Monday, February 14, 2022
Introduction
The NHS in Southport and Formby, south Sefton, Knowsley, Liverpool and West Lancashire has been looking at how it can improve local hyper acute stroke services – ‘hyper acute’ is the care you receive in the first 72 hours after having a stroke.
Between 22 November 2021 and 14 February 2022, we are holding a public consultation about proposals for a Comprehensive Stroke Centre at Aintree University Hospital, which would bring together the hyper acute care currently provided at Aintree, the Royal Liverpool, and Southport hospitals.
For more details about these proposals and why they are being made, please read this information booklet. You can also read a shorter summary document. We’re developing information in BSL and Easy Read formats too – these will be available here very soon.

Promotion
Previous engagement
During autumn 2019 we worked with the Stroke Association to visit a number of local groups for stroke survivors, to talk about the review and gather feedback from those with experience of hospital stroke services. You can read a report about this engagement here.
The information gathered from discussions with stroke survivors, their families and carers were used to help develop the proposals for a single Comprehensive Stroke Centre which form the basis of the current consolation.
Although our discussions during autumn 2019 were about hospital services, we also received feedback about other parts of stroke care, including people’s experience of rehabilitation and support services once they left hospital. In January 2020, NHS England published a new national service specification for early supported discharge and community care following a stroke. This document describes the care that people can expect to receive, but currently there are different levels of service in place both locally and nationally. The Cheshire and Merseyside Integrated Stroke Delivery Network has since set up a group to review rehabilitation services and make recommendations for improving services and reducing inequities between areas.
