A stroke is a very serious medical emergency that demands swift action.

Stroke is the 5th leading cause of death in the U.S. and a major cause of long-term disability for adults, but it is preventable and treatable. That is why patients and families need to know more about preventing and identifying stroke.

During a stroke, every second counts. That is why it is important to know and recognize symptoms of a stroke early. Two physicians share more.

Did you know that different colored candy buckets can signify that a child has a disability? Of course, parents and guardians are not required to share their child's disability while out trick-or-treating, but these buckets can be helpful in spreading awareness about a child's needs.
This Halloween, we invite you to create an inclusive experience for all kids by doing things like offering non-food treats, allowing a child with communication limitations to get their candy without saying "Trick-or-Treat", and turning off flashing decorations for kids with light-triggered epilepsy.
Thank you to the Great Lakes ADA Center for these examples! 🎃
