Stroke Care

Comprehensive Stroke Care When Every Second Counts

When it comes to treating a stroke, immediate and expert care is crucial. At Rochester Regional Health, we provide comprehensive stroke care, from emergency response to rehabilitation, ensuring that every patient receives the best possible outcome. With a dedicated team of specialists, state-of-the-art technology, and a patient-centered approach, we are here to support you every step of the way.

Our Approach to Stroke Care

Our approach to stroke care is centered on rapid intervention and personalized treatment. Our emergency medicine team carefully coordinates efforts with local Emergency Medical Services (EMS) to make sure that high-quality care begins en-route to a Rochester Regional Health hospital. We require EMS to notify us of potential incoming stroke patients, so our stroke team can be assembled and ready when the patient arrives. Our multidisciplinary team, including neurologists, neurosurgeons, and rehabilitation specialists, works closely together to deliver coordinated care tailored to each patient’s unique needs. We utilize the latest medical advancements and evidence-based practices to provide the highest level of care, from acute treatment to long-term recovery.
