Healthy Learning Lecture
“
Stroke Awareness Month”
A stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks
an artery or a blood vessel breaks, in-
terrupting blood flow to an area of the
brain. When either of these things hap-
pen, brain cells begin to die which can
affect speech, movement and memory.
Up to 80% of strokes are preventable!
Join us in the PAC at 2:00 PM for more
information from our Wellness Pro-
gram Coordinator, Crystal Dodson,
about Stroke Awareness.
