About Course
High blood pressure (hypertension) rarely causes symptoms, yet it is a major risk factor for heart attacks, strokes, kidney disease and vascular dementia. Learn what blood pressure readings mean, who is at risk, how to support accurate readings and the lifestyle changes and treatments that help.
This course provides general awareness only. It does not replace clinical assessment, training from a qualified professional, or your organisation’s policies and procedures, and it is not an accredited qualification. If someone is seriously unwell, call 999.
