June is National Men’s Health Month, and Blake Bunner, CEO of Encompass Health of Deaconess, shared stroke risk factors for men in an interview with WEHT. He stressed the importance of identifying and reducing risk factors including high blood pressure, smoking, obesity, diabetes, and consuming too much alcohol. Blake shared that if a person does experience a stroke, patients can get back to living a normal life through a comprehensive, interdisciplinary rehabilitation program, like those offered at Encompass Health.
