BLOOD PRESSURE CLINIC 

Second & Fourth Thursday, 9:00 - 10:30 AM .
Get your blood pressure checked by former registered nurses with recent public health experience who provide a special service at our activity centre by taking and recording readings.
This is a FREE walk-in service. First come, first served. 

How do you prepare for a blood pressure test?
  • Don’t drink coffee or smoke cigarettes 30 minutes before having your blood pressure measured
  • Before the test, sit for five minutes with your back supported and your feet flat on the ground. Rest your arm on a table at the level of your heart.
  • Wear short sleeves so your arm can be easily exposed.
  • Go to the bathroom prior to your reading.  A full bladder can change your blood pressure reading.

NEXGEN HEARING

Visits our Centre throughout the year offering complimentary hearing clinic tests.  NexGen Hearing has made the process of assessing your hearing level easier than ever. Their assessment is the most comprehensive and includes the following 3-point series of tests.
•       Air conduction
Clients listen to tones of decreasing volume to identify softest that is audible. This measurement of hearing loss is done separately for the right & left ears.
•       Word discrimination
Clients listen to words presented to each ear. They cannot see the presenter’s face to lip read. This gives idea of clarity of one’s hearing for speech.
•       Tympanometry
We test to find out if the eardrum and middle ear system is working properly. This way, we can be sure to know if the hearing loss comes from the middle ear or from the inner ear.
