More than 75% of strokes occur in people over 65. But in the last 30 years, more people under the age of 50 have suffered strokes than ever before. More than 120,000 in the U.S. each year. Which is why it's time to FACE THE FACTS: Stroke can strike anyone, at any age. Even those who are young, fit, and in what most would consider the prime of their life. And why knowing the signs and being prepared to act are more important than ever before.

Mission: Lifeline Stroke Interactive Provider training video

This immersive learning experience takes frontline providers through a realistic, case-based stroke scenario—from the moment of symptom onset in the pre-hospital setting through emergency department triage and acute treatment decisions. Learners actively engage with the case through interactive questions that test clinical knowledge and reinforce best practices in stroke systems of care. Whether you're EMS, ED, or part of the hospital stroke team, this module builds confidence and competence in delivering timely, evidence-based stroke care that saves lives.
