This report took as its basis the current clinical evidence for stroke services, set out within the Intercollegiate Working Party for Stroke national clinical guidelines published by the Royal College of Physicians. These guidelines are reflected in the National Service Framework (NSF). The NSF stroke standard translates the guidelines and further evidence based practice into a four year plan and concludes with an expectation that every person who has a stroke will be seen by a specialist stroke team and have access to a specialist stroke service by 2004.
