Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health issued the following announcement on Dec. 03.
Congratulations to Lancaster EMS providers Nathan Cramer and Tyler Seibert, the latest recipients of LG Health's #TimeIsBrain pin. The fast action and teamwork of these individuals allowed a stroke patient to receive the clot-busting drug tPA and mechanical thrombectomy—an advanced stroke procedure at Lancaster General Hospital—in a critical window of time. Rapid treatment can reduce or even reverse the damage caused by a stroke.
Don’t delay care. Call 911 immediately if you or someone around you experiences stroke symptoms: Face Drooping. Arm Weakness. Speech Difficulty. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3o8zWSS
