FCHVs will undergo a 4-day training program on hypertension management, including screening, counseling, medication adherence, self-care, and referrals. They will then collaborate with healthcare facilities to conduct one-day hypertension screening camps. FCHVs will form self-support groups for individuals with hypertension and hold monthly meetings to discuss control strategies, review BP logs, and promote healthcare visits, including family involvement. They will also maintain regular communication with healthcare facility in-charges to ensure effective collaboration in the 'Hypertension Care Cascade Model'.
