The ANM immediately sought teleconsultation for Lakri to provide her with medical advice and treatment. She kept following up with Lakri, ensuring that Lakri followed her treatment regimen. After a few more visits, there was a significant improvement in Lakri’s health.
Thus, she remained in the dark about her condition. A WISH-supported ANM discovered her condition during a screening session and told her to visit the dispensary. Concerned by her absence the next day, the ANM revisited Lakri to find a further spike in her BP.
For every 2 in 3 Indians w ith hypertension, routine care for the condition is a pipe dream. Lakri (name changed), a 72-year-old resident of Hajua division, also suffers from this ailment. Burdened by her age and the remoteness of residence, she couldn't get regular checkups.
