NORWAY – Area residents can be screened for their risk of having a stroke during a Life Line Screening Thursday, March 23, at the town hall, 19 Danforth St. Appointments will begin at 9 a.m.
A stroke is ranked as the third leading killer in the world, and the second among women. Screenings are fast and painless.
They involve the use of ultrasound technology, and scan for potential health problems related to blocked arteries, which can lead to a stroke; aortic aneurysms, which can lead to a ruptured aorta; and hardening of the arteries in the legs, which are a predictor of heart disease. A bone density screening is also available.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, call 1-877-237-1287. Preregistration is required.
