Blood pressure clinic at the Women's Building

The Golden Gate chapter of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses is hosting a blood pressure clinic at the Women's Building every third Monday of the month. This initiative provides free blood pressure checks to the community, emphasizing the importance of regular health monitoring. Local residents can take advantage of this service without needing an appointment, which encourages more people to participate. The clinic aims to raise awareness of hypertension and its health implications, particularly within Hispanic communities. This program reflects a broader commitment to improving public health and accessibility to healthcare resources.

Additionally, attendees receive educational materials on managing blood pressure, which can lead to long-term health benefits. The initiative not only helps address immediate health concerns but also fosters a culture of proactive health management. Overall, this clinic serves as a vital resource for enhancing community health.
