ST. JOHN\u2019S, Antigua, June 5, 2025 \u2014 The\u00a0Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre (SLBMC)<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0successfully launched the first day of its\u00a0inaugural Stroke Training\u00a0and Assessment Summit today, bringing together local and international healthcare professionals to enhance stroke recognition, response, and treatment across Antigua and Barbuda<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Held at the SLBMC Auditorium, the Summit welcomed physicians, nurses, emergency responders, and allied health professionals for a day of interactive education, engaging presentations, and capacity-building focused on improving outcomes for stroke patients.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This week\u2019s event builds on a comprehensive six-week training course that laid the foundation for the advanced sessions and practical assessments taking place throughout the Summit.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is more than a training; it\u2019s a turning point,\u201d said\u00a0Dr. Gaden Osborne, Neurologist and Chair of the Subspecialty Services Department\u00a0at SLBMC<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are committed to creating a system where every minute counts, and where our healthcare teams are empowered to act quickly and decisively to give stroke patients the best possible chance at recovery.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s program featured an impressive international lineup of stroke care professionals, including neurologists with different subspecialties, such as endovascular and neuroradiology, and a registered nurse serving as a stroke coordinator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These experts delivered engaging and interactive presentations on a wide range of stroke-related topics, offering global insights to support local capacity-building.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sessions addressed critical aspects of stroke care, including stroke recognition by EMS, neurological assessments in triage, thrombolysis decision-making, and the management of acute ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Additional topics included mechanical thrombectomy, dysphagia screening, post-thrombolysis care, inpatient stroke nursing, and effective discharge planning, underscoring the importance of a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach from first response through recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key goal of the summit is to support SLBMC\u2019s ongoing efforts to achieve formal stroke center certification from the World Stroke Organization (WSO). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hospital has already begun the certification process, which aims to align its stroke protocols and performance with international standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Becoming a certified stroke center would mark a major advancement in reducing stroke-related deaths and long-term disability in Antigua and Barbuda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Summit is made possible through the generous support of\u00a0Medical Benefits Scheme,\u00a0Caribbean Alliance Insurance,\u00a0Caribbean Pharmaceutical Supplies Ltd., and\u00a0Sagicor Life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are incredibly grateful to our sponsors and partners,\u201d said\u00a0Salma Crump, <\/a>Head of Marketing & Communications\u00a0at SLBMC. \u201cThis kind of training is only possible through strong collaboration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a reflection of what we can achieve when healthcare institutions, private sector partners, and the broader community work together to build a healthier, more prepared nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tomorrow\u2019s sessions will center on a review of SLBMC\u2019s stroke services and performance data, followed by a formal assessment by the\u00a0World Stroke Organization, an essential milestone in the hospital\u2019s journey toward certification and ongoing advancement in stroke care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SLBMC extends heartfelt thanks to all participants, facilitators, and partners working to improve stroke outcomes and elevate healthcare delivery across Antigua and Barbuda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
