GET YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKED

CARDIOVASCULAR disease (CVD) is a major health issue in Australia, leading to the hospitalization of over 600,000 people annually. 
 
World Hypertension Day, which was on May 17, aimed to increase awareness of the significance of knowing and maintaining a healthy blood pressure level. 
 
About 1.28 billion adults aged 30-79 worldwide suffer from high blood pressure, with 46% of adults unaware of their condition and only one in five having their blood pressure under control. 
 
Blooms The Chemist, a leading community pharmacy network, supports their local communities by promoting blood pressure monitoring and encouraging individuals to visit their pharmacy for a blood pressure test. 
 
This initiative aims to combat low awareness rates, particularly in low to middle-income areas. 
 
Blooms The Chemist provides free blood pressure evaluation tests as a core health service across their pharmacy network, aiming to prevent future health issues through early detection and intervention
