Stroke Support Group
When a stroke strikes, it can feel like the ground has shifted beneath your feet.
Whether you’re a stroke survivor or a caregiver, we all need a place where others understand. That’s why we offer a Stroke and Aneurysm Support Group at Health First. Here, you can connect with others facing the same questions and challenges. The journey is easier when we take it together.
Join us at the Holmes Regional Medical Center Auditorium.
