New! Blood Pressure Monitor Kits

Would you like to monitor your blood pressure at home? We’re offering patrons the opportunity to borrow a blood pressure monitor for a period of 28 days. Along with the monitor, we will provide patrons with information on how to have a healthy blood pressure level, how to find heart healthy recipes and how to find follow up information on blood pressure self-monitoring.

The cuffs come in three sizes:

– Large

– Standard

– Small

Plus, one talking monitor!

Note: you cannot place a hold for these items. They must be picked up from and returned to the Emma Clark Library Circulation Desk. More info and check availability here.
