The theme I selected for this year is “Brain Stroke – Time to take Action” emphasizing the need of action at every level by everyone using every strategy !
Key priorities include: Developing a National Stroke Action Plan to strengthen stroke care infrastructure across India and Advocate for standardize stroke care and accreditation process. Knowledge and Capacity building - To train young neurologists, Stroke nurses, ER and ambulance staff to prioritize and managing acute stroke patients and deliver evidence based treatments in time. Empowering Public Awareness- Spreading the message that 80% of strokes are preventable and Time is Brain.
