The first sign of a stroke might not seem like much. Like - not being able to raise your arm.
But any sign of a stroke is always an emergency. Face or arm or speech, at the first sign, it's time to call 999

This #StrokePreventionDay we're encouraging you to monitor your blood pressure. That's because high blood pressure is the biggest risk factor for stroke.
Check your blood pressure – and take action to lower your risk of stroke.

A huge thank you to one of our patients, who raised money through @bayhospitals for us to purchase an additional Sara Steady for the Huggett Suite, RLI.
Here it is being put to use, helping Andy to transfer safely, as part of his rehabilitation!
