  • High Blood Pressure Workshop

    High blood pressure, or hypertension, is known as the “silent killer” because it often has no symptoms — but it can lead to serious health problems if left untreated. During pregnancy and postpartum, high blood pressure can increase the risk of preeclampsia and other complications, making awareness and prevention essential for mothers and babies. Join us on Tuesday, October 28, 2025 from 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM.
