Dr. Addison Haynes, Chief Medical Officer at Indiana Health Centers, shared his perspective on why it's important to check your blood pressure.

"Most of the time, high blood pressure does not cause any symptoms or signs that we can see or feel. Occasionally it can cause headaches, that is rarer than you would think. We call high blood pressure, hypertension, the silent killer. You tend to feel completely fine until something very serious happens and it can cause permeant damage. Most people don’t catch it early because they simply do not check. Just getting in with your primary care doctor once a year can get you screened and treated if needed!"

High blood pressure, or hypertension, develops when blood flows through the arteries at higher-than-normal pressure. Left uncontrolled, it can lead to serious conditions like heart disease and stroke. That’s why Indiana Health Centers encourages all of our patients to take action to prevent or control high blood pressure.

Here are some additional tips to help keep your blood pressure in check!

Tip #4 - Find ways to manage stress, whether that’s a walk, meditation, or time with someone you love
Tip #5 - Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night
Tip #6 - Know your numbers: get your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar checked regularly

Vaccines aren’t just for kids. They can help adults stay healthy too – especially if they have health conditions. Even if you got all your vaccines as a child, the protection from some vaccines can wear off over time. You may also be at risk for other diseases due to your age, job, lifestyle, travel, or health conditions. Adults with chronic conditions like asthma/COPD, heart disease, and diabetes are more likely to get complications from certain diseases. Vaccination is an important part of staying healthy. Getting sick is not fun at any age – and for adults it can mean medical bills, missed work, and not being able to take care of family.

For questions or to schedule vaccinations for your child, call your local IHC (indianahealthonline.org/our-locations).

Indiana Health Centers would like to thank Governor Mike Braun for exempting Indiana’s Federally Qualified Health Centers from the changes to the 340B drug pricing program. The exemption will protect access to healthcare for our patients and allow us to continue to expand our services to best care for our communities. We are grateful to Governor Braun and his administration for taking the time to listen to our concerns and consider the real-world impact these changes would have made.

We would also like to thank our community supporters, patients, CIC and board members, and staff who continue to advocate for community health centers across the state. Your voices matter and make the difference!
