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.

Thank you to our partners at Stony Brook Medicine and the American Heart Association for their assistance with this program.
