The Stroke Foundation’s annual awareness campaign begins on Monday and will celebrate regular Australians who know and perceive the signs of stroke – or the abbreviation, F.A.S.T. Heroes. National Stroke Week 2020 starts from August 31 and ends on September 6, 2020, in Australia.
Across Australia, F.A.S.T. Heroes can save lives, just by knowing and perceiving the F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) signs of stroke and calling an ambulance right away. They realize that stroke is consistently a health-related crisis and time are critical.
In 2020, you can get included and raise awareness in your particular manner. This may mean creating your event or activity virtual.
We have a wealth of resources for you to help promote your National Stroke Week event or activity. You can get a free National Stroke Week kit to help your activity, including a range of hard copy and digital resources for your home or working environment, by signing up today.
The foundation has asked any individual who speculates somebody they know is having a stroke to follow the abbreviation and do the following:
Around one of every four individuals globally will have a stroke in their lifetime. Over 475,000 Australians are living with the effect of the stroke.
Since the COVID-19 flare-up, we have seen fewer individuals calling triple zero (000) and going to the hospital at the first signs of a stroke. During circumstances such as the present, we are depending on our F.A.S.T. heroes to save lives by perceiving the signs of stroke (Face, Arms, Speech, and Time).
You can be a F.A.S.T. hero and save the life of a friend or family member, an associate, a more bizarre or even yourself by understanding the F.A.S.T. message and summoning an ambulance straight on the off chance that you speculate a stroke.
Supporting National Stroke Week may look a little changed for the current year, yet the message is similarly as significant. Contingent upon where you are in Australia, you probably won’t have the option to assemble in enormous groups however there are still a lot of approaches to get included and raise awareness. There will be a range of digital resources to assist you with getting the message out through your social networks, interactive online courses for hospital staff, and StrokeSafe talks being conveyed virtually to community groups by our great volunteer speakers.
