Stroke awareness can save lives!
When it comes to a stroke, every second counts so I wanted to share this graphic! Recognize the signs and act F.A.S.T.:
- F – Face drooping? Can they smile?
- A – Arm weakness? Can they hold their arms straight out in front of them, or does one of them fall?
- S – Speech difficulties? Is their speech slurred or mixed up?
- T – if you see any of these signs it’s time to call emergency services! Dial 911
If you notice any of these symptoms in someone (or yourself), don’t wait. Call 911 immediately.
Early action can mean the difference between recovery and permanent damage.
