INSPIRE Aims:

  • Provide an overarching strategy for the development of stroke, neurology and neuro-rehab services in line with HHFT's 'Our Future Together' strategy and the NEL ICB strategy for stroke and neuro-rehab.
  • Provide an integrated and comprehensive approach to stroke, neurology and neuro-rehabilitation.
  • Support a transformational programme of work to implement the strategy.
  • Provide a strategic forum to discuss and action wider ICB and national stroke, neurology and neurorehab developments and progress actions across pathways.
  • Support stroke and neuro rehab training, workforce development, and research opportunities within HHFT and NEL.
  • To take a data driven, population health approach to ensure our services meet the needs of the population we serve. Improving collaboration and communication

Delivering clinical expertise at the right time in the right place
