Who we are
The stroke service delivers care to Wolverhampton, Walsall, South Staffordshire and Cannock.
At New Cross Hospital, we have a 39-bedded stroke unit, consisting of 12 hyper acute beds and 27 acute stroke beds.
Inpatient rehabilitation is based at three sites: West Park Hospital, Cannock Chase Hospital, and Hollybank House for Walsall residents.
We also have access to an early supported discharge team, as well as a community stroke team, who will visit patients once they have been discharged from hospital.
We also provide a 24/7 thrombolysis service and a seven-day TIA clinic. We refer all suitable stroke thrombectomy patients to University Hospital North Midlands (UHNM).
