Scottish Stroke Care Audit


For patients and carers

What is the Scottish Stroke Care Audit?

The Scottish Stroke Care Audit checks the quality of stroke care in hospitals in Scotland.

About 15,000 people have a new stroke in Scotland each year. There is strong evidence that well organised stroke care improves the outcome for stroke patients.
Hospitals across Scotland routinely collect information about stroke.

● How many people have a new stroke?

● How quickly do people go to hospital?

● Do they go to a Stroke Unit?

● When do they have a brain scan?

● When do they start on medical treatment (for example aspirin)?
