Neurological disorders affect millions of Americans each year, with stroke being a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in an aging population.

This educational program will cover critical topics, including:
• Stroke risks associated with COVID-19 and other respiratory viruses
• Stroke risk reduction with modern weight loss medications
• Stroke rehabilitation techniques
• Medical management of ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes
