Stroke and COVID

Release Date: 2/19/21 - Expiration Date: 2/19/22

Estimated time to complete: 60 Minutes

Stroke care is a constantly evolving entity with science opening the doors for new, innovative ways to treat and manage stroke patients. Often, for those who don’t work with stroke patients on a consistent basis, or who don't have access to the latest breaking science, these changes in our practice lag. Our hope is that through this lecture, providers, nursing, and ancillary staff will have a better grasp on these advances and be better able to apply them in their provision of care.
