Do you know that out of 4 people with hypertension, only 1 is aware of their high blood pressure, while another 3 are not. It is because of the lack of awareness among Malaysians to a have regular medical check up. In conjunction with the World Hypertension Day 2017 which was launched on May 15th, 2017 in UMMC, 3 departments (Primary Care Clinic, Staff and Students Clinic, and the Dietetic Department) have collaborated to conduct an awareness campaign about high blood pressure with the theme "Know Your Numbers" to encourage public to check their blood pressure level at least once a month. The campaign is still on till May 19th, 2017. Come and join us for a free blood pressure screening while the campaign is still on. See you there!
