Combating a major killer

Stroke is the nation’s leading cause of disability in adults, and in particular the elderly. It is also the 3^rd leading cause of death.

It is a medical emergency which requires immediate attention as it may result in death. Experience, expertise and time are three important factors that can make the difference in treating a stroke. Not all hospitals and rehab centers have the equipment or staff experienced enough in combating this physical problem. Seniors require extra attention and care.

One rehab center that offers stroke rehabilitation programs is Valley House Rehabilitation Center in Santa Clara, California.
