AHORA (Andar, Hablar, Ojos, Rostro, Ambos Brazos o Piernas) is a Spanish language tool to identify stroke symptoms. A survey of 300 primarily Spanish-speaking, non-medical professionals was conducted to assess the acceptance of the tool, specifically about ease of understanding and ability to implement it. The overwhelming majority of respondents reacted very positively to the tool, finding it quite easy to learn, teach, and understand. Respondent feedback, pitfalls, and questions for further research are presented.
