Emergency Awareness

If you think someone is having a stroke, act FAST

Face: Ask them to smile. Does one side droop?

Arms: Ask them to raise both arms. Does one drift down?

Speech: Is their speech slurred or hard to understand?

Time: Call 911 immediately.

Every second matters. Quick action can save a life and reduce brain damage.
