Stroke remains the 5th leading cause of death and #1 cause of disability in adults. To minimize the risk of death and long term disabling effects, we need to take stroke seriously! We will help you understand the different types of strokes, identifying your risk factors, how to optimize a healthy lifestyle, recognizing the signs and symptoms of stroke, and the importance of seeking immediate medical attention by activating emergency services. By calling 911 immediately upon recognizing any stroke like symptoms, a person can receive advanced treatments and interventions that may not only save their life but also reduce any potential long-term disability. The time to receive these life saving measures is limited however, so STROKE IS NO JOKE!
