Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital Discusses How Strokes Can Be Prevented
Nurse navigator Melody Halio from Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital discusses how strokes can be prevented in honor of May being “Stroke Awareness Month.”
“The National Stroke Association says that strokes are up to 80 percent with lifestyle and medical problem modification,” Halio said.
The faster you get to the hospital during a stroke, the more options they have to treat it. There are two different stroke treatment options in the very first hours of having a stroke or stroke-like symptoms. One of these options is a medication that is a clot buster. If a patient meets all the criteria in the first four and a half hours of a stroke, this medication can be administered. This medication has a 40 percent chance of completely eliminating stroke symptoms. Any sign of stroke should be addressed as soon as possible so the clot buster medication can be an option for treatment.
Former Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital Foundation President Diana Vose died Wednesday after suffering a stroke in November, according to hospital officials.
Vose began her career at Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial Hospital in late 1981 as a development and community relations assistant and retired in 2015 after serving 14 years as president of Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital Foundation.
“Diana was a beloved leader at our hospital, and tireless in her efforts to expand our facility and programs. Her work is seen throughout our campus and will be remembered by generations to come,” said Roger E. Seaver, Henry Mayo’s President and CEO.
“Diana Vose was known for her focused commitment and her generous heart, “ said Marlee Lauffer, current Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital Foundation President. “She was a mentor to me and many women in the Santa Clarita Valley and a true community leader.”
