Stroke Care at Baptist

Why Baptist?

for Stroke Care

The Brain & Stroke Network at Baptist Health System increases survival rates for stroke victims in San Antonio by providing complete stroke care that’s available 24/7. For you, that means neurosurgical support is minutes away. For ischemic strokes, who arrive at a Baptist ED, an acute stroke team is readily available to provide tPA .

Baptist provides you with complete stroke treatment at five hospitals all over San Antonio. Until now, quality stroke care was only available in Austin and Houston, forcing stroke victims to endure long transports and delay time-sensitive life-saving treatment. Baptist is ready to take any stroke patient in the city of San Antonio and is following the brain coalition guidelines for standards of stroke care. Baptist has earned Primary Stroke Center Certification at each of its five hospitals making it the first in San Antonio to be certified.
