A stroke can occur at any time, in any place, and at any age. However, suffering a stroke doesn’t have to lead to permanent, life-altering disability if it is identified early and treated quickly. The Mobile Stroke Units bring expert stroke care directly to patients’ homes. In 2024, the units were dispatched 1,015 times, with an average door-to-drug administration time of 15.5 minutes. The team continues to work with the Phoenix Fire Department to provide education on the latest stroke-care guidelines.
Donor support is critical to providing patients fast treatment on the mobile stroke units. Give today at the link in our bio!
