Did you know that approximately 15 million people worldwide suffer a stroke each year?

At NeuroRecovery we believe that patients and the non-medical community should receive more information on emergency stroke treatment, to encourage improvement in hospital treatment globally.

EVERY MINUTE COUNTS IN EMERGENCY STROKE TREATMENT, the sooner a patient can be brought to hospital and start receiving treatment the greater the chance of reducing and even reversing any damage caused to the brain.

Improving understanding of early treatment should help explain the need to act fast and call the emergency services if someone is suspected of suffering a stroke.
