May is National Stroke Awareness Month


Did you know that 80% of strokes are preventable? Aim to prevent strokes by staying active, not smoking, eating better, controlling cholesterol levels, monitoring blood pressure and blood sugar levels, and talking to your doctor about medications and lifestyle changes. If you think you or someone else is having a stroke, act FAST.

The faster you act, the better your chances of recovery with little to no lasting impacts. Spread the word, FAST.
