【Identifying Stroke】: The Mnemonic of "Talking, Smiling, Raising and Helping ”


The Mnemonic of "Talking, Smiling, Raising and Helping ” - the Widely Known Method to Quickly Identify Stroke

We would like to share with you how to quickly master the mnemonic of "Talking, Smiling, and Raising" to identify a stroke.

Firstly, "Talking" refers to whether your family member or friend has difficulty speaking and can express themselves properly.

Secondly, “Smiling” refers to whether their smile is lopsided or asymmetric.

Thirdly, "Raising" refers to whether both sides of the body can be raised simultaneously. If one side cannot be raised or is outside the normal range of motion, special attention should be paid to this asymmetry.

Lastly, “Helping” refers to seeking immediate medical attention if you suspect a stroke in your family member or friend.
