Project Niramaya Celebrates World Hypertension Day
Humana People to People India’s Project Niramaya celebrated World Hypertension Day in collaboration with the Health Department of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar. Aligned with this year’s theme, “Measure Your Blood Pressure Accurately, Control It, Live Longer!”, the event emphasised the importance of accurate blood pressure monitoring for effective hypertension management. 370 people participated in free blood pressure check-up camps and sessions on maintaining a healthy lifestyle to control hypertension.
ASHA workers played a crucial role in mobilising communities at 7 Primary Health Centres (PHCs), ensuring strong participation and effective information dissemination. The event brought together PHC members, ASHA workers, Anganwadi workers, school teachers, and local community members to promote hypertension awareness and prevention. HPPI remains committed to promoting community health and well-being by raising awareness on communicable and non-communicable diseases.
