STROKE RISK ASSESSMENT
Stroke does not discriminate on the basis of age – one occurs on average every minute in the United States to young people and seniors alike. That’s why it’s so important for everyone to understand the risks of stroke and recognize its early warning signs.
Sun Health offers this stroke risk assessment as a guide for a personal assessment of your risks of having a stroke. It is not intended to take the place of the advice of your physician, whose professional expertise can identify any health concerns you may be experiencing. Your doctor also can guide you in developing a healthy lifestyle that can help minimize the risk of stroke.
