Blood Pressure
Blood pressure is the force of blood against the walls of the arteries. Blood pressure will rise and fall throughout the day, but when it stays elevated over time, it is called high blood pressure (hypertension).
There are no early warning signs of high blood pressure, so it is important to have your blood pressure measured at least every two years.
If you would like a one-time reading or need to have your blood pressure monitored on a regular basis, Student Health can provide this service for you M - Th;
9 a.m - 3 p.m . Screenings are also available at the Wellcheck. Call 265-3599 for more information.
