A stroke is a medical emergency and should be treated urgently.
It occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is cut off. The brain requires oxygen and other nutrients, which are carried in the blood, to function normally.
A stroke, or cerebro-vascular accident (CVA), occurs when this supply of blood is interrupted and can result in death or severe disability if not diagnosed correctly or treated timeously.

At Life Hilton Private Hospital, we are here for you.

Every second counts; time is life.
