Our community partners at the American Heart Association want to help educate our clients and caregivers about the difference between heat stroke and stroke; knowing the difference could safe a life.

Heat Stroke vs. Stroke: Know the Difference

• Heat Stroke happens when your body overheats and your core temperature rises above 104°F.
• Stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain is blocked or bursts, cutting off oxygen. Brain cells begin to die with lack of blood and oxygen.

Both are serious—but they’re not the same.

“As a nurse, we have the opportunity to heal the mind, soul, heart, and body of our patients. They may forget your name, but they will never forget how you made them feel.”— Maya Angelou

Today marks the start of National Nurses Week, and we’d like to take the time to thank our nurses, RNs and LPNs for embodying our Care Values: Compassion, Attitude, Respect, and Excellence.

This year's theme, 'The Power of Nurses', is fitting as we acknowledge and appreciate the amazing contributions you make across the in-home care landscape and, most importantly, to the lives of our patients—which will always be our true north.

Happy Nurses Week and thank you!
