Keep On Track Blood Pressure Monitoring Program - Aging Wellness (In Person)

Keep On Track

The KOT blood pressure monitoring program was designed to help older adults recognize and control their blood pressure readings by giving them a chance to have their blood pressure checked weekly in a comfortable and familiar setting located in their older adult center or program site.

Keep on Track volunteers follow color-coded protocols which were developed jointly by NYC Aging and the NYC Department of Health. Keep on Track volunteers use digital blood pressure monitors to measure and record participants' blood pressure readings. Counseling is also provided by volunteers to older adults when needed and it’s kept confidential.
