Stroke Bypass Agreement: ALWAYS dial 9-1-1 if you think you're having a stroke!
8-1-2020
RLMCMH and other facilities in the region are part of a Stroke Bypass Agreement, which authorizes paramedics to bypass Red Lake Hospital and take patients directly to the nearest designated stroke facility (Dryden) and CT scanner.
If you are experiencing stroke-like symptoms, always dial 9-1-1, in order to be assessed as quickly as possible! Driving to the Hospital could delay the transfer process.
