Its National Stroke Week!
Let's look after each other, by keeping an eye on our loved ones, and calling for help if they have any of the following symptoms.
The Stroke Foundation recommends the F.A.S.T. test as an easy way to remember the most common signs of stroke.
Using the F.A.S.T. test involves asking these simple questions:
Face - Check their face. Has their mouth drooped?
Arms - Can they lift both arms?
Speech - Is their speech slurred? Do they understand you?
Time Is critical.
If you see any of these signs call 000 straight away.
