Heidi Erl, Hospital Supervisor at Aspirus Medford Hospital, is helping the next generation recognize the signs of a stroke. During her visits to Holy Rosary School Medford, she teaches students to “BEFAST,” shares stories about families affected by stroke, and encourages kids to talk about what they learn at home. As we recognize World Stroke Day on October 29, Heidi’s work is a reminder that awareness starts early and that education can make all the difference in saving lives. | Aspirus Health
