SUMMARY:CMSA National (1 CE): Turning the Stroke Journey into a Path of Empowerment and Healing to Enhance Recovery and Quality of Life
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n  \nStroke remains a major health concern worldwide\, often leaving survivors with lasting physical impairments and significantly reduced quality of life (QoL). Addressing these challenges requires more than traditional clinical care—it demands a coordinated\, patient-centered approach. \nJoin us for this insightful webinar showcasing a quality improvement initiative conducted at Al Hada Armed Forces Hospital in Taif\, Saudi Arabia\, aimed at transforming the care experience for ischemic stroke survivors. With an average modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 3.33 among patients—indicating considerable functional limitations—this project sought to enhance poststroke outcomes through the implementation of a comprehensive\, evidence-based case management model. \nSpanning from May 2022 to July 2023\, the project was executed in three structured phases: \n\nExtensive literature review\,\nDevelopment of a targeted intervention protocol\, and\nImplementation and outcome evaluation using a quasi-experimental design.\n\nAttendees will learn how tailored case management strategies not only improved patient functional independence but also led to measurable increases in satisfaction\, reduced hospital readmissions\, and gains in quality-adjusted life-years. The session will also explore qualitative insights into patient compliance and the holistic impact on daily living. \nWhether you're a clinician\, healthcare leader\, or advocate\, this webinar offers practical\, replicable strategies for elevating stroke care and patient QoL. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore how this study highlights the effectiveness of an evidence-based case management intervention in improving outcomes for individuals facing poststroke challenges. Our findings support the importance of case management–based interventions in addressing the unique needs of this population. \nThis presentation showcases the project of the CMSA Foundation 2024 Case Management Practice Improvement Award recipient.  \nObjectives: \n\nAddress challenges faced by the stroke survivors in improving their overall well-being.\nIdentify the role of multidisciplinary team on improving patient outcomes.\nDemonstrate the effectiveness of an evidence-based intervention enhancing outcomes for patient facing post stroke challenges.\n\n  \nPresenter:\nMohamed A.K Ahmed\, MBBS\, MSc\, Neurology Fellowship\, PhD \nContinuing Education:\n1 hour RN and CCM \nFees:\nMembers - FREE\nNon-Members - FREE
