DH Stroke-Specific Education Framework

The National Stroke Strategy, covering stroke services in England, was launched in December 2007.  It was inclusive in its development and was welcomed warmly by all stakeholders.  The Strategy recognised that staff working in stroke had variable levels of knowledge and skills and that there was no nationally recognised stroke specific training.  The Department of Health liaised with professional organisations, the NHS Workforce Review Team and the Stroke Association to establish a UK Forum for Stroke Training in order to provide nationally recognised, quality assured and transferable education and learning programmes in stroke at pre-registration and post graduate level.  The forum set up a steering group with wide ranging representation from all UK countries. Task groups produced reports which were brought together into this stroke-specific education framework.

This is now in place and can be found below
