AV on Health: African Americans and Stroke

It's the third leading cause of death in the African American community and Blacks are 50% more likely to experience it than Caucasians. It's called stroke and African American survivors are more likely to come out of a stroke disabled and unable to participate in everyday activities like walking, lifting, grasping items or socializing with others. On the next Another View on Health, co-host Dr. Keith Newby and Physiatrist Dr. Beverly Roberts-Atwater talk about stroke - what causes it, how to prevent it, and proper treatment. Join us for the next Another View on Health, Friday, January 23 at Noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM, or stream us live on this blog!
