Learning the signs, symptoms, and risk factors of a stroke can help save a life. Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the U.S. and yet most people do not know how to recognize a stroke when it is happening. The Stroke Awareness Foundation created a free mobile phone app to help clearly identify stroke signs and symptoms.
The Stroke Awareness Foundation app explains the signs of a stroke in simple graphics, calls 911 directly, instantly sends a text alert to three emergency contacts at the click of one button, and can show you the location of the nearest certified stroke center, nationwide.
The app is available for iOS and Android devices and is available in English, Chinese, Spanish, and Vietnamese. Visit the App Store or Google Play store to download this free resource.
