International Stroke Center Certification

Driving comprehensive quality stroke care improves patient outcomes and hospital value

The American Stroke Association developed Stroke Center Certification to help hospitals create an integrated and collaborative approach to stroke care. Certification ensures continuous and effective quality improvement in stroke care, improving outcomes and survival from stroke in your community, reducing errors and helping your hospital stand out.

The American Stroke Association (ASA) is collaborating with Middle East North Africa Stroke Organization (MENASO) to improve quality and access to stroke care by offering a Stroke Center Certification in the United Arab Emirates and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Evidence-Based Data for Quality Improvement

Active participation in Stroke Centre Certification can help your hospital recognize opportunities to improve stroke care, which could lead to reduced 30-day readmissions and improved patient outcomes.

Using online tools to provide patient-specific guidelines and track adherence, each module helps hospitals follow the most up-to-date, research-based treatment guidelines, reducing gaps and eliminating disparities in the delivery of quality care.
