CFMH ED & Radiology Teams quick actions help to save a patient's brain!

A patient presented to the ED at CFMH with stroke symptoms.  The ED & Radiology teams followed the newly implemented Stroke Alert process for our facility which resulted in quick CT scans, test results and Teleneurology consults for this patient.  The patient was then flown to IR at RMH within 31 minutes of receiving the positive test results.  This patient walked out of RMH 4 days later with almost complete resolution of their symptoms! This case also required strong collaboration with the Transfer Center, Lifeguard 10 staff and the IR/Neurology teams at RMH.
