pRESIDENT
Dear colleagues in Stroke,
World Stroke Day is 29/10/26. For the public and for our non-stroke colleagues it serves to remind them about the importance of stroke. It’s an opportunity to remind them of the signs of stroke and how to seek help, and to educate them about modern treatment for stroke ranging from emergency and acute treatment, rehabilitation and secondary prevention.
For us and our stroke colleagues, World Stroke Day serves to remind us that stroke care is a global effort. Global research, global efforts to standardise stroke care provision and provide modern treatment worldwide; however small your stroke team and your stroke career might feel, World Stroke Day reminds you that you are one of countless thousands working together for the same cause.
So the Australasian Stroke Academy thanks you for your stroke work and especially your work to educate yourselves, your colleagues and your patients about stroke. We hope you have a wonderful World Stroke Day on Thursday October 29th.
