The Wisconsin Hospital Association (WHA) is hosting a virtual Stroke Systems of Care (SSoC) Collaborative to help rural and critical access hospitals across Wisconsin develop stroke systems of care that meet standards for achieving Acute Stroke Ready Hospital criteria and achieve better outcomes for stroke care.
Each session will be led by subject matter experts actively working in the field, with demonstrated success implementing innovative processes. Networking sessions will be offered for participants to partner with SSoC experts and peers.
The collaborative will launch on Jan. 21, 2021, and continue to meet regularly on most Thursdays from 10:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. through April 8, 2021.
