Patients visiting Marlette Regional Hospital for symptoms of stroke now have immediate access to advanced neurological care thanks to a new partnership with St. John Hospital & Medical Center (SJHMC) of Metro Detroit and St. Mary’s of Michigan.

In Marlette, when a patient is visiting the emergency room (ER) for stroke-like symptoms, staff at Marlette Regional Hospital will move an audio and visual enabled robot near the patient, so that the stroke neurologist on call at SJHMC will be able to see and communicate with the patient via a live video feed (similar to Skype or Facetime). This same neurologist will also be able to view the patient’s laboratory results and diagnostic imaging films (cat scans) to assist in diagnosis. Family members and staff will also be able to talk to the SJHMC specialist, which can ease the transition if transfer to a higher level of care is necessary for further advanced treatments.

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted or there is bleeding in the brain. Within minutes, brain cells begin to die. If you’re having a stroke, it’s critical that you get medical attention right away. Prompt treatment of a stroke could mean the difference between life and death—or between recovery and disability.

Through this partnership, we’re bringing the latest advances in stroke treatment closer to home.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel are available to provide care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to 9-1-1 calls, along with providing transfer services for both emergent and non-emergent health care needs. We service Sanilac County, along with portions of Huron, Lapeer, and Tuscola Counties.
