An Act to develop a coordinated stroke care system

This bill directs the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to create a statewide system that improves how stroke patients are treated. It requires the department to train emergency medical services staff on recognizing stroke symptoms, review data to ensure patients get timely care, and run public education campaigns to raise awareness. The legislation also mandates better tracking of critical timing information, such as when a patient arrived at the hospital and when they received treatment, to help hospitals provide faster and higher quality care.
