GUIDELINES AND PROTOCOLS
After a collaborative stakeholder workgroup and best practice research, LERN has established four hospital levels of care as part of Louisiana’s “hub and spoke” model which includes Comprehensive Stroke Center and Primary Stroke Center hubs, and spoke hospitals connected by telemedicine.
The LERN Board has approved guidelines and protocols for stroke patient care to deliver the patient to the Right Place at the Right Time to receive the Right Care.
