may still be a warning sign.
Step 5: Prepare simple information
If possible, gather:
• Current medicines
• Known allergies
• Major medical history
• Recent falls or injuries
• Time symptoms began
• Emergency contact information
This helps medical professionals work faster
What Not To Do
In stressful moments, people often try home solutions first. That can delay help.
Avoid these common mistakes:
• Do not let the person sleep it off
• Do not give alcohol
• Do not offer food if speech or swallowing seems abnormal
• Do not assume symptoms are only stress
• Do not wait
