Healthy Families – Remote Blood Pressure Monitoring with Deanna Padilla

How does remote blood pressure monitoring work?

FNP-C Deanna Padilla from Omni Family Health explains how remote blood pressure monitoring (RPM) helps patients with hypertension manage their condition from home. She describes how patients receive a loaned blood pressure cuff that connects to their electronic health record, allowing the care team to track readings remotely. Deanna emphasizes that RPM is part of a four-month program that includes health education sessions on topics like nutrition, stress management, and exercise. This proactive approach enables timely adjustments to treatment plans and supports better blood pressure control.
