Abstract
As an acute phase hospital, we do not have recovery phase medical wards. Therefore, it is important to have a team medical treatment within the hospital and enhance cooperation between hospitals. The functions of medical wards are segmentalized by symptoms or phases, so the cooperation between medical wards and the enhancement of team medical treatment are necessary. As cooperation between medical wards, nurses of each medical ward visit other wards for in-hospital apoplexy cooperation aiming for smooth ward transfer. In 2006, we established a stroke unit to conduct various team medical treatments in order to prevent disuse syndrome of egestion organs with “Rehabilitation from mouth and next to egestion.” as a keyword, and to prevent a pulmonary complication in “No Pnuemonia Week,” and also to aim for “No Inhibition.” As inter-hospital cooperation, the nurses and therapists periodically have visited our patients since eight years ago in order to prevent inconvenience in hospital transfer or time consumption in medical care. Furthermore, “Kochi Rehabilitation Nursing Study Group” focuses on improvement and cooperation of nursing technique for apoplexy within the prefecture.
