The bill introduced in the 136th General Assembly aims to designate the first week of May as "Ohio Stroke Awareness Week." This initiative seeks to raise awareness about stroke prevention, recognition, and treatment within the state of Ohio.

To implement this designation, the bill enacts a new section, 5.2540, in the Revised Code, which explicitly states that the first week of May will be recognized as "Ohio Stroke Awareness Week." This addition to the law underscores the importance of stroke awareness and aims to promote educational efforts surrounding this critical health issue.
