Blood Pressure

In addition to our Book Redistribution, GRYPHONS Leo Club also offers another service at the Health Fairs, the taking of Blood Pressure. The San Francisco Host Lions Club, which organizes these Health Fairs, has allowed us to set up booths at these Health Fairs and a separate division from the Books team takes the BP of patients and then records it to be examined by a physician later. These measurement devices are fully automatic, Leos simply assist patients by putting on the cuff and pressing the button, and then reading the results and taking off the cuff when the test is complete.
