A stroke occurs every five minutes in this country
June is Stroke Awareness Month, and Jennifer Godkin is a Recreational Therapist/Stroke Health promoter.
Here she is on how often a stroke occurs here in Canada.
She tells us about the acronym that is used to help identify a stroke.
Also, Jennifer tells us about her two events this month. One at BGH on the 10th, followed by the other at CPHC on the 24th.
