Ask the person to smile.
                                             Does one side of the
                                             face droop?









                                             Ask the person to raise both
                                             arms out. Does one arm drift
                                             downward?








                                                  Ask the person to repeat
                                                  a simple phrase. Is their
                                                  speech slurred or strange?






                                             If you observe any of these
                                             signs, call 911 immediately
                                             and tell the operator you
                                             suspect the victim may be
                                             having a stroke.
