Stroke can strike without warning, knowing what to do in the first minutes may save a life and protect brain function.
Remember the 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧 check:
→ Face: Is one side drooping?
→ Arms: Is one arm weak or hard to lift?
→ Speech: Is it slurred, jumbled or hard to understand?
→ Time: Act fast & call an ambulance immediately!
Other signs may include sudden dizziness, vision changes, numbness, severe headache, confusion or loss of balance.
If you can, check blood glucose, as low blood sugar can look like stroke, and early treatment makes a difference.
✅ Do’s: Keep them safe, monitor breathing, place on their side if unconscious, note time symptoms started.
❌ Don’ts: Don’t give food, drink, aspirin, or delay calling for help.
Early recognition and fast response can save lives and brain function! ⏱️
