OBJECTIVES
• Discuss the Joint Commission measurement
for patient stroke education
• Review education initiatives and tools to
increase compliance

ASA Policy Statement Recommendations
for the establishment of stroke systems of
care suggest that a stroke system should:
• Develop support tools to assist patients in
long-term adherence to stroke prevention.
• Develop multiple education strategies
along with health literacy targets
appropriate to the education levels of the
targeted population

Education Data Elements
• Personalized Risk Factors for Stroke
• Warning Signs and Symptoms of
Stroke
• Activation of Emergency Medical
Services
• Follow up after Discharge
• Medications Prescribed at Discharge
5
Educational Materials
• DVD, CD, Video, brochures, personalized
teaching sheets can be used
– Content of these items needs to be described
within your documentation
• Documentation can occur any time during
admission
• JC recommends that stroke education
occurs throughout the hospital admission

Education Requirement Exclusions
• If patient is “Comfort Measures Only”
– Does NOT include “DNR” status
– Does include patients with Hospice Referrals, etc.
• Patients being Discharged to Inpatient Rehab,
Nursing Home, Long Term Acute Care (this is
new for Jan 2010 JC submissions)
• Patients admitted for Elective Carotid
Endarterectomies

Things That Impede the Education Process
• If patients or family refuse education
• Patient has severe cognitive
impairment, AND there is no family or
caregiver available.
These instances must be documented

Where to Document

Nurse, and Patient
• Pathway/ Care Plans
• DC Instruction Sheet
