What Causes Dizziness And Slurred Speech?

My 92 yr old father claims he feels dizzy and speech somewhat slurred, his leg gave out on him last night and he fell. If he had a mini stroke what do you suggest he is stubborn and not likely to be cooperative. What can I do that is not going to upset him?
