Stroke Awareness Foundation 4.10

Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States, yet awareness of its symptoms remains low among the general population.

This application provides an educational approach to recognizing the signs of a stroke through simple and clear graphics. In cases of a suspected stroke, the app is designed to promptly contact emergency services directly by dialing 911. Moreover, it enables users to notify up to three pre-selected emergency contacts via text message about the medical emergency and the ongoing call to 911.

For individuals seeking the nearest certified stroke center, an essential consideration given that not all hospitals offer specialized stroke treatment, this app can locate and provide information on the closest designated facility.

It is worth noting that the accuracy of device and stroke center locations provided by the app is approximate and may not always be precise.
