Blood Pressure Measuring
About half of Irish Adults over the age of 50 have high blood pressure. With such high prevalence, added the fact that the condition often presents no symptoms, we would benefit from having our Blood Pressure measured regularly so we can prevent problems occurring in later life.
In selected branches, you can have your Blood Pressure checked in as little a ten minutes at a cost of just €5. The process is confidential and takes place in our private Care Rooms. Our trained service providers will simply ask you some background questions and then measure your blood pressure for you with instant results!
All customers who request a Blood Pressure check will also reveice a BMI check. You will also receive information and advice on maintaining a healthy lifestyle and how to prevent high blood pressure. If your results are outside safe limits, our pharmacist will provide you with a referral letter for your GP and advise you on when you should contact them.
