When someone suffers a stroke, it can be an extremely serious event; it is actually the fourth single leading cause of death in the UK. Even in cases which are not fatal, it can lead to a range of disabilities. The Stroke Awareness Online course helps to teach awareness of the causes and symptoms of stroke to allow people to act quickly if they suspect that someone is having a stroke. By doing so, they are giving the person concerned the best possible chance of receiving the treatment that they need and minimising any damage that the stroke may do.
As part of the Stroke Awareness e-learning course, you will look at the different types of strokes as well as their symptoms and risk factors. Will also cover the different treatment options that are available and what the longer term impact of the condition can be for different people.
This online stroke awareness course is most relevant for those who work in adult care, as it is those who are in close contact with the people at greatest risk of having a stroke.
Acting quickly is essential when a stroke occurs and the sooner the person concerned can receive treatment, the easier it is to minimise the impact of the event. By completing the stroke awareness course, you will be better aware of the signs and symptoms of a stroke, as well as what to do when it occurs to help get the person the help that they need quickly and improve their long-term outcomes.
