A new wearable device is being used to help detect those at risk of a stroke, diagnose Atrial Fibrillation, and improve waiting times for treatment at Worcestershire Royal Hospital. The adhesive mobile ECG patch is worn by stroke patients for up to 14 days to record their heart rhythm to reveal potential causes of stroke. Our stroke team apply the small, lightweight patch to a patient’s chest where it reads and analyses their heart's electrical activity using Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Unsolicitated from someone ‘on the work floor’ working with real people whose lives are being challenged. Says it all really. Please read. ‘From a stroke point of view, by getting the #Callme correct enables us to establish an initial connection with our patients.’ @BrianwDolan

The reinstatement of the Band 6 Senior Occupational Therapist rotations will provide OT's a way of adapting & diversifying within their role, allowing the exploration of different areas&different skills. This is essential for meeting the future health&care needs of our residents
