World Stroke Day | Every Minute Counts
A stroke can happen suddenly, and recognising the warning signs early can make a life-changing difference.
Remember B.E. F.A.S.T. — Balance difficulties, Eyesight changes, Facial drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulties, and Time to act.
If you notice any of these signs, seek emergency medical assistance immediately. Note when the symptoms started, and do not wait for them to improve—even if they disappear.
Early recognition and timely treatment can help reduce brain damage, disability, and the risk of death.
Recognise. Act. Make a Difference.
