🌍 World Stroke Day
Share the message with your family and friends — it could save a life!

Be Stroke Aware – Know the Signs!
Knowing how to recognize a stroke and acting quickly can make all the difference. Every second counts when it comes to saving a life and improving recovery.

🗓 National Stroke Week: 28 October – 3 November
This week is all about raising awareness of the warning signs of stroke and encouraging everyone to make healthy lifestyle choices to help prevent one.

⚠️ Recognize the Signs – Think F.A.S.T.
The word F.A.S.T. is an easy way to remember the most common signs of a stroke and what to do:

F – Face: Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?
A – Arms: Ask them to raise both arms. Is one arm weak or drifting downward?
S – Speech: Ask them to repeat a simple sentence. Is their speech slurred or strange?
T – Time: If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to call emergency services immediately.

🕐 Why Acting Fast Matters
Getting medical help right away increases the chances of survival and recovery.
Don’t wait. Act FAST!

🌍 Two expert MDT educators, worlds apart, echo the same powerful truth: Assumptions don’t guide treatment — assessment does.

Even with a detailed MRI or thorough history, clarity comes only through structured, reliable assessment — the foundation of the McKenzie Method.
