Think someone is having a stroke? Call 999 for an ambulance straight away. You'll be taken to the nearest specialist stroke unit. Please don't drive to Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow which does not have a stroke unit. You may delay vital treatment. bit.ly/3Ab4E9F

Day two, let's go... still get so inspired meeting leaders in our field. Absolute honor to sit and hear Maggie-Lee Huckabee lecture #Dysphagia #

@Trainingmadeasy I am trying to book on one of your courses but the website is not allowing me? Are there still places on the Huckabee course? TIA

Fantastic day focusing on my SLT career, lots of exciting things to think about! Thankyou to everyone who put the day together @NHS_HWE @SallyJudges @HCTNHS @HCTAdultSLT So brilliant to have @RCSLT there too !

Congratulations to the stroke team @enherts who won the Time to Shine award for continuous improvement! They have all worked hard to pull up their SSNAP scores🌟@HCTNHS #mysltday #strokeMDT
