Begin at the Beginning . . .

Trudy, Colleen and myself began the process.

Take aways:

• Tentatively we meet 9 am Monday & Friday  ( 1/2 an hour)
• Meeting with:  tele-conference and blog site and google docs - this actually showed promise - All were able to see the blog site and the google doc, so this may be the venue we keep.
• until better alternatives come about . . . 
• Shirley returns next week.
• Next week finish up Scope doc
• Colleen and Trudy will pull ( begin to)  major take aways from National Stroke Transitions doc ( see link below). 

Managing Stroke Transitions of Care - Best Practices

Welcome

Welcome Colleen, Trudy and Shirley,


I am hoping that we might use 'blogger' ( this interface ) to build the Transitioning Stroke Patients Course.

I hope this will provide a place for:

1.  Discussion
2. Tracking Progress
3. Place for others to comment on beta versions
4. Request changes
5. Store knowledge
6. Store files

In other project builds we have used SharePoint and email but I feel this will allow us a friendlier more inviting place to share and work together. I am here to support all of you in this endeavor and am happy to answer any questions about using this tool.

In the mean time I would hope you might consider putting documents up to this site so that we may begin to assemble the knowledge that we might need to move forwards.


I wish you a warm welcome and if you have any concerns, please reach out so I can assist you.

Mark Sheridan

To begin I would like you to try and post a comment in the comments below.
