The acute organisational audit provides a biennial ‘snap-shot’ of the quality of stroke service organisation in acute settings. The last four rounds of this audit (2012, 2014, 2016, and 2019) have achieved 100% participation.

Full results for the 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2019 audit are available here. Reporting outputs for the acute organisational audit present every data item benchmarked against the national average and include national and hospital-level findings on many important aspects of stroke service organisation including staffing levels, acute care processes, TIA (mini stroke) services, access to specialist support and communication with patients and carers.

The next acute organisational audit is scheduled for September 2021. More information about this audit including data collection timeline is available here.
