Lunch & Learn Series

We are excited to have Tamara Ramer with American Heart Association here to present a Lunch & Learn Seminar on Controlling Your Blood Pressure.

High blood pressure usually has no symptoms. That’s why it’s called the “silent killer.” The only way to know if your blood pressure is high is to have your health care professional check it regularly. Join us to learn how to get it under control properly.

Who has high blood pressure?

• About 55% of African American adults
• 44.7% of Native Hawaiians & other Pacific Islanders
• Hispanics – more men than women with the highest incidences among those of Caribbean background
• American Indians & Alaska Natives, especially those with diabetes mellitus.

This program is free, but registration is required. Registration closes April 24. Limited to 25 attendees.

Bring a bag lunch and join us in the Living Room ready to learn!
