In 2021, 84% of metropolitan patients received this care compared to 41% in regional areas. BUILDS: Bridging the Urban and Regional Divide in Stroke Care was developed to address this significant gap in care. The aim was to develop, implement and evaluate a telestroke unit service. The results of this innovative, cost-effective pilot had an impact on diagnostic accuracy and resource use. Patient, carer and clinician feedback indicated this model was well received. The BUILDS model and results will be highlighted in the presentation.<\/p> Objectives:<\/p> Lauren Arthurson<\/a>, Echuca Regional Health, Australia<\/p>
Part 1: inTouch \u2013 a holistic, person-centred and flexible approach to improve care and outcomes<\/strong>
The inTouch program is evaluated to identify the key lessons to designing and implementing models of care that are holistic, person-centred and flexible. Underpinned by six core elements, three pathways are examined where the inTouch program has been utilised to demonstrate how evidence-informed decisions, grounded in diverse multi-organisational data, drives collaboration, integration and positive patient and organisational outcomes. Ongoing patient feedback to address, in real-time, evolving health, social and practical needs proves central to program success. inTouch governance mechanisms, internally \u2013 to the executive and frontline service staff \u2013 and externally to other health and community agencies critical to success are explored.<\/p>
