Q 2. Option 3: I would suggest that Charles consult with the senior nurse and the medical team before starting to exercise or engage in any risky activities.
Q 3. Option 1; I would direct Charles to FAST advice; (Face – does your face look different on one side? Arms – can you raise your arms? Speech – is your speech slurred or different? )
