Improving Door-to-Treatment Times: The Role of an Integrated Simulation and Workflow Program in a Community Hospital's Acute Ischemic Stroke Care
The integration of a structured simulation-based education program significantly reduced stroke treatment times in a community hospital setting. This initiative highlights the value of simulation in refining clinical workflows and improving time-sensitive emergency care. Further research is warranted to explore long-term patient outcomes and the broader applicability of this approach in nonacademic hospitals.
