  • provide an integrated, comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach to stroke prevention and case management for these high-risk patients
  • facilitate planning and implementation of primary and secondary stroke prevention strategies for the respective area of the region
  • work in partnership with primary care, acute care, stroke rehabilitation, community care access centres and other stake-holders in planning regional stroke prevention strategies
