Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple
questions:


S *
Ask the individual
to SMILE.


T *
Ask the person
to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)

(i.e. It is sunny out today)


R *
Ask him or
her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.


If he or she has trouble with
ANY ONE of these tasks,call 999/911 immediately and describe the
symptoms to the dispatcher.
