Suppose you find a person laying on the ground and there’s no indication of bodily injury. But from all indications, the person is definitely incapacitated. Is it a seizure? A stroke? A heart attack? Or something else?
To determine if they may have suffered a Stroke, check the following:
Can the person smile?
Can they raise both arms?
Can they speak coherently?
If the answer to these three questions is “NO,” more than likely the person may have had a stroke!
Time is of essence!
Dial 911 immediately and then provide the person with an aspirin if available!
