If it is happening right now, call 911. Damage from a stroke can often be lessened, but the patient must be seen in the emergency room immediately, best within the hour that symptoms started. Don't drive them to hospital yourself, they should go by ambulance (911). Take all their medications or a list with you to hospital.
