The Visiting Nurses of Newport County offer two FREE blood pressure clinics for seniors this month at the Middletown Senior Center.

Two clinics are held each month. In the month of April, the clinics are scheduled for 11 a.m. to noon on Tuesday April 12 and Tuesday April 26.

The clinic is FREE and open to all Newport County seniors, made possible by grant support funds.

Additionally, seniors may sign up to use the FREE blood pressure monitoring station that is available for use daily at the Middletown Senior Center. The Visiting Nurses of Newport County instantly monitors the results and readings taken at the station, tracks seniors' data and will contact the senior directly if they see any results that are of a concern.

For more information about the monthly blood pressure clinics or to sign up for the instant blood pressure monitoring program, please contact Susan Dugan at the Visiting Nurse Services of Newport County at 401-682-2100 ext. 635.
