Stroke, Blood Pressure and Total Cholesterol Screenings

Spot a Stroke - Fast! If you think someone is having a stroke call 9-1-1 immediately.

Stroke signs:

• Face Drooping: Does one side of the face appear to be uneven?
• Arm weakness: Is one arm weak and upon raising the arm does it drift downward?
• Speech Difficulty: Is speech slurred? Is the person hard to understand?
• Time to call 9-1-1: Even if symptoms go away, make that important call and get the person to the hospital immediately. Check the time when you notice the first symptoms.

No fasting required for these screenings.
