Technology can help to empower patients and reduce the pressure on health services. Mike Farrar of Visionable shares eight practical steps on how technology can help with stroke prevention and management.

Following the success of the first NROL (Neuro-Rehabilitation OnLine) program with UCL and UCLH NHS Trust, a second program has been funded and begun with East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust to help support survivors of stroke and brain injuries, meaning they can access help in their own homes rather than having to attend hospital.

In collaboration with the RCN Foundation, research has been carried out by The London School of Economics and Political Science to explore the economic case for investing in advanced practice nurse training: an innovative nursing role to support the delivery of specialist coordinated neurorehabilitation services for adults following a stroke.

The RCN Foundation has awarded funding to a unique research project that will explore and analyze the diverse experiences and unmet needs of young adults recovering from an Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) or stroke. 

Ghana nursing students selected as winners of the first Nightingale Challenge Global Solutions Initiative

As part of the Nightingale Challenge Global Solutions Initiative, and SameYou's challenge to nurses, this new webinar discusses 'Implementing innovation and improving care'.

SameYou are sponsoring the first challenge of the Nightingale Challenge Global Solutions Initiative in partnership with Nursing Now. SameYou and Nursing Now believe that nurses have a critical role to play in brain injury recovery and should contribute to the development and innovation in this field. In this webinar we discuss 'Brain injury recovery & rehabilitation: Bridging the gap from hospital to home'.

Anxiety and isolation have been an unfortunate and widespread consequence of the global COVID-19 pandemic―a situation only compounded for those recovering from a complex medical condition. SameYou funded remote options for therapeutic human connection with Spaulding Rehabilitation Network and partnered to launch the PAVING the Path to Wellness: Emergency Response Edition to provide a safe and effective way for brain injury and stroke survivors to engage in positive therapeutic connection during this precarious time.

SameYou are delighted to sponsor Nursing Now's first Nightingale Challenge Global Solutions Initiative. SameYou and Nursing Now believe that nurses have a critical role to play in brain injury recovery and should contribute to the development and innovation in this field.

NROL is a telerehabilitation initiative with UCLH Queen Square which was made possible thanks to your generous fundraising during the Covid pandemic.
