LEWISTON — “Stroke: Signs and Symptoms” is the topic of a presentation set for the Thursday, Feb. 17, meeting of the Central and Western Maine ICD Support Group.
Certified emergency nurse Michelle Gosselin, RN, will describe the signs and symptoms of stroke and why getting immediate medical attention is critical when stroke is suspected.

The support group is for individuals who have an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Family members and other support persons are also welcome to attend.
The free session will be held from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. in the Central Maine Heart and Vascular Institute first-floor conference room, located in the Young Wing at 60 High St.
