On Thursday, May 21st, a group joined Dr. Phil Rossi at White Fence Estate for a small group discussion on Stroke prevention and education.  The event was held from 6:30p-8:00p and guests in attendance were able to enjoy homemade dessert from HMC kitchen and have a chance to ask questions regarding stroke symptoms, prevention, as well as learn their risk factors.

Guests also learned what it means to be a Illinois Critical Access Hospital Network Stroke Ready Hospital.  The event was a great way to bring awareness to strokes and how to learn the signs of FAST if you suspect someone is having a stroke.

Hopedale Medical Complex provides free screenings to individuals who are at an increased risk for stroke.  Contact the Vascular department if you would like more information on a free screening!  309.449.4811.

Congratulations to our door prize winners!
