South East TorontoStroke Network (SETSN)

    The SETSN is one of 11 regional networks established across the province to implement the Ontario Stroke System. The primary objective is to support innovation, knowledge translation and practice improvements across the South East Toronto Region, with the goal of promoting equitable access and improved outcomes for stroke survivors and their families. This Network represents a collaboration of regional partners in stroke care delivery that spans the areas of prevention, health promotion, acute care, rehabilitation, long term care facilities and community providers. Strengthening of these partnerships through the SETSN will lead to reorganization of stroke care, system change, professional education on stroke best practices and enhanced public awareness and resources.
    St Michael's Hospital is a designated Regional Stroke Centre providing investigative and treatment services through emergency and acute care services. A Stroke Assessment and Treatment Team within the hospital is available for assessment and rehabilitation services.
    Secondary Stroke Prevention services are also available within St Michael's.
    The Regional Network Team consists of Program Manager, Regional Education Coordinator, Regional Clinical Nurse Specialist, Rehab and Community Reengagement Coordinator and Program Assistant. This team supports regional partners through advocacy, leadership, governance, data management, transition management, awareness, education and resources, related to stroke.
    Region spans Yonge St to Rouge River, Eglinton to the Lake
