The NHS blood pressure check is available at our pharmacy in Stivichall, south Coventry, close to the A46 and the ring road, aimed at identifying people with undiagnosed high blood pressure (hypertension). The service enables adults aged 40 and over, who do not have a current diagnosis of hypertension, to have their blood pressure checked for free.
If an initial reading is high, we may offer 24-hour Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to confirm a diagnosis and/or refer you to your GP for further assessment and management.
Early detection and treatment of hypertension reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease to prevent heart attacks and strokes.
