BMC Primary Care, 25(1), 191.https://doi.org/10.1186/s12875-024-02444-yhttps://nru.uncst.go.ug/handle/123456789/10142Individuals living in communities with poor access to healthcare may be unaware of their high blood pressure (BP). While the use of community health workers (CHWs) can address gaps in human resources for health, CHWs in Uganda have not been used previously for BP screening and management. We report the results of an initiative to train CHWs to evaluate BP and to administer group-based education in Kalangala and Buvuma Island Districts of Lake Victoria, Uganda.enArticle
