Every minute counts. Stroke can happen suddenly, and without warning. Knowing how to spot the signs of stroke and raising the alert is an essential first step that can help make sure people get the treatment they need, F.A.S.T.

🔵 Two in every three stroke survivors experience long-term complications or
disabilities.
🔵 Fast action on stroke can dramatically reduce the amount of damage caused.
🔵 This increases the chances of a near or full recovery.
🔵 Fast action doesn’t just save lives – it helps people live their best life.

Your action today could change a life tomorrow.
