Promoting Native American health in northern Nevada
In northern Nevada’s Native American community, where hypertension and diabetes rates are disproportionately high, our Check.Change.Control. initiative has emerged as a lifeline. The evidence-based hypertension management program enables participants to take ownership of their cardiovascular health through blood pressure self-monitoring. Over the past year, our team has worked with health care leader Renown to scale the program and raise awareness about hypertension risk factors, prevention and management.
