Hamilton Medical Center will host a stroke simulation event in front of Bradley Wellness Center from 10 a.m. to noon on Friday, May 17.

“When it’s a stroke, every second counts,” said Meagan Darnell, Stroke Program coordinator. “Getting the right level of care quickly is extremely important.”

 

“Knowing the signs of stroke, how to prevent it, and how to help others around you, just might save a life,” Darnell said.

 

Dr. Juan Gonzalez, Hamilton Physician Group-Neurology, will be on hand to answer questions. The event will also include light refreshments, blood pressure checks with Hamilton Home Health and tours of Bradley Wellness Center.

 

Hamilton Medical Center has a nationally ranked, highly trained Rapid Stroke Team on staff.
