Safal Shetty on Building a Continuous Culture of Stroke Awareness at KIMS
Safal Shetty, Interventional Neurologist at Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences, shared on LinkedIn:
”Stroke prevention and treatment demand a comprehensive, year-round effort that involves everyone—from the public to frontline healthcare providers.
At Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences (KIMS) -MDP we are committed to raising stroke awareness across all levels.
Public education initiatives such as Cyclathon organised at our center focus on recognizing stroke symptoms early, understanding risk factors, and promoting healthy lifestyle changes to prevent stroke before it happens.
Equally important is empowering healthcare teams.
We provide continuous training for nurses, emergency doctors, and paramedics to ensure rapid identification, streamlined triage, and effective acute stroke management.
Our state-of-the-art cath lab enables timely interventions, such as mechanical thrombectomy, to restore blood flow and minimize brain injury.
This multidisciplinary, ongoing approach ensures that every stroke patient receives the best chance for recovery—from prevention and early recognition to advanced emergency care and rehabilitation.
Stroke awareness and treatment are not seasonal efforts—they are a constant commitment to saving lives and improving outcomes.”
