In a brain stroke, every minute of delay costs brain cells. J.K. Hospital keeps its casualty and ventilator-supported ICU open 24 hours, all seven days, so a patient with sudden weakness can be stabilised in Khalilabad instead of losing hours on the road. Long-term stroke and paralysis follow-up is handled in the weekend neurology OPD.

- Sudden weakness of one arm, one leg or one side of the body
- Face drooping to one side, or a sudden crooked smile
