May is stroke awareness month. People need to act quickly to avoid lasting damage when they happen – and remember the acronym “BE FAST.”
‘B’ stands for balance and watch if someone is losing it. ‘E’ stands for eyes and changes to vision.
‘F’ is for face and signs of it drooping. ‘A’ is for arms and looking for signs that one arm is dropping when raised.
‘S’ is for speech, listening to hear if it’s slurred. And ‘T’ stands for time to call 911 if any of these signs are present.
