24-hour Lancashire/South Cumbria stroke thrombectomy service uncertain due to unidentified specialist staff.
24-hour thrombectomy service for Lancashire and South Cumbria stroke patients is uncertain, as specialist staff have not yet been identified. The Royal Preston Hospital currently provides the procedure seven days a week, but only between 8am-6pm. Dr. David Levy, medical director of Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board, stated that the service has been commissioned, but the key issue is the lack of necessary staff.
