Stroke is and has always been a serious health concern. While many of us are doing our part to 'stay at home' during the global COVID-19 crisis, any signs or symptoms of stroke require us to head to the emergency department. Novant Health stroke navigators (Brittany Fox, Jessica Newell and Teresa Shelton) break it all down in this three-part series on stroke education.
In this final episode we hear about risk factors and prevention methods to steer clear of this health concern. You may be surprised at how easy it is to prevent a stroke.
An easy acronym for detecting the signs of stroke is BE FAST: Balance; Eyes; Face; Arm; Speech; Time! Seek care immediately if you see or experience an of these signs!
