Blood Pressure Checking

The NHS free blood pressure checking service

High Blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a serious health condition that if not diagnosed and controlled, can lead to further health complications. It is estimated that over 5 million people with hypertension are undetected. We offer a convenient and accessible service for checking your blood pressure. Ask in-store to have your blood pressure checked. This service is funded by the NHS, it is free for eligible patients.

How does the service work?

One of our pharmacists will have a short consultation with you and your blood pressure will be checked. Depending on the ossett of your blood pressure, you will be provided with appropriate advice.
Short on time? Feel free to use our self-service blood pressure machine, located at the end of the shop floor at Wilstead Pharmacy.
Or, if you prefer, ask one of our pharmacy team members to check your blood pressure for you in one of our private consultation rooms.

Important Information

If you are over 40 years of age and not currently taking blood pressure medication, please note that as part of this NHS-funded service, we are required to share your blood pressure results with your GP. If your blood pressure is found to be higher than normal, our pharmacist may recommend Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) for a more accurate assessment.
Your health and wellbeing are our priority — thank you for your understanding.

Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM)

If your blood pressure is high, the pharmacist might offer you Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM). You will be given a device to wear that will monitor and record your blood pressure over a period of 24 hours. The results will be discussed with you in a follow-up appointment. The pharmacist will provide lifestyle advice or referral to your GP if your blood pressure is high.
Speak with a member of staff to find out if you are eligible for this service.
