Abstract/Description

The purpose of this research was to discover and develop a policy to implement into a hospital that gives attainable resources to lower income communities about health promotion and stroke education. Based on the data retrieved from specific communities, it has become evident that there is a limited amount of resources available and community outreach programs, with an emphasis on strokes, are less common in lower income communities. With simple and efficient stroke education within these areas, the amount of knowledge about stroke prevention and stroke care can and has increased significantly.
