10-11 a.m.
Do you know the difference between stroke and heat stroke?
While both conditions can be life-threatening and require immediate medical attention, they are not the same. This seminar will help attendees recognize the warning signs and symptoms of stroke and heat stroke, understand key differences between the two and learn when to seek emergency care. Topics also include prevention strategies, risk factors and steps to take to stay safe during periods of extreme heat, especially for older adults and those with chronic health conditions.
