Sudden facial drooping, weakness of an arm, or difficulty speaking can indicate a stroke. Seek emergency medical care immediately. Every minute matters. @strokeaction_RW
#StrokeAwareness
STROKE ACTION RWANDA retweeted
As we approach World Stroke Day, Rwanda NCD Alliance and @strokeaction_RW encourage everyone to make stroke prevention part of everyday life.
Start with these steps:
✅ Monitor and control your blood pressure.
✅ Stay physically active and reduce time spent sitting.
✅ Eat a balanced diet with fruits, vegetables and less salt.
✅ Avoid tobacco and exposure to secondhand smoke.
✅ Manage diabetes and cholesterol with guidance from your healthcare provider, and follow prescribed treatment.
Prevention is a shared responsibility—in our homes, workplaces and communities. Share these steps and encourage someone you care about to take action.
Healthy people. Stronger communities. Together, let’s work towards a stroke-free Rwanda.

Community support and personal agency go hand in hand.
"So one thing that I've learned is that despite this community moving mountains for me, without that taking a personal initiative of actually knowing that the life that I want to live, it is my own personal responsibility to ensure that I live that life.
It means that if I'm struggling, it's my own responsibility to actually reach out. It is my responsibility to do what it takes for me to get well."
-John, Kenya
John's community moved mountains for him. Reaching out was the step that let them.
