At the present time 'better health care' is one of the two main government objectives for the National Health Service. Since this implies future improvement it is essential to be able to describe current practice. This article describes the outcome (current practice), principally in terms of Barthel score, for stroke patients receiving rehabilitation on a specialized ward and puts forward a suggestion for a minimum data set which could be used to describe current practice on all rehabilitation wards.
