This week is known as World Stroke Week and tomorrow is World Stroke Day (29th October), health organisations across South Africa are stepping up their efforts to raise awareness about stroke prevention and education. Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability in South Africa, and it is critical for people to have greater awareness of the condition and its signs and symptoms, so that a victim of a stroke can be treated promptly and at an appropriate stroke care facility. Professor Veronica Ntsiea, Head of Wits Physiotherapy Department and stroke rehabilitation researcher, joins to talk about the significance of creating awareness about stroke.
