Today we’re going to support Stroke Awareness Month with a discussion about this important disease. Andrea Beard joins me on the program today, and she has so much to discuss. Please share this with your friends and family because timing matters too much when it comes to battling a Stroke! Listen in to learn How and Why.
If you suspect you are having a stroke, please call 9-1-1 IMMEDIATELY. While we encourage the use of the Aultman Anywhere App to check the wait times, stroke symptoms and chest pain are among the highest priority cases seen at Aultman’s emergency rooms and will be triaged accordingly.
