Stroke Week Special Episode (Season 5)

Episode 6 Stroke Week Special Episode (Season 5)

 

A podcast for shedders.

 

Did you know men are at a greater risk for strokes? And that risk increases as we get older? But, stroke is preventable for many and a quick response often results in better outcomes – every minute counts!

 

This month we’re bringing you a special episode of The Shed Wireless.

 

Our Shedder(s) in the Spotlight are Don and Noel from Newcastle Men’s Shed, who have both been affected by stroke. JPY caught up with Don and Noel about their experience and their lives at the shed.

 

AMSA’s Stuart Torrance sat down with Tony Finnernan from the Stroke Foundation to talk about his experience with stroke, what you can do to prevent stroke and what to look out for when it comes to recognising the signs and symptoms of stroke.
