“DO IT FOR LIFE” CAMPAIGN | AUGUST 2024

The DIL Walk Foundation’s “Do It for Life” Campaign is the largest ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) screening initiative in North America.

We often hear that health is wealth, but how many of us truly take the time to care for ourselves and our loved ones? In the rush of daily life, it’s easy to overlook the silent dangers that could be lurking within us, like hypertension—a condition that often goes unnoticed until it’s too late.

Take a moment today to check in on your health—it’s easy and free to take action.

This free-of-charge campaign aims to screen 100,000 individuals to raise awareness about hypertension, one of the leading causes of health complications in North America, helping to prevent strokes, heart attacks, and sudden cardiac death.

We are collaborating with nurse practitioners to provide medical care, and together, we can make a significant difference in the health and well-being of our community, empowering everyone to be the CEO of their health.

We encourage organizations, societies and companies join us to deliver high quality accessible care to your social and corporate teams.

Proactive care and a healthy environment have been proven to significantly enhance overall collaborative contribution. By fostering wellness, we create an atmosphere where teams can thrive, innovate, and work together more effectively.

Joining our initiative not only demonstrates a commitment to the well-being of your team members but also positions your organization as a leader in promoting sustainable, health-driven practices. The benefits include improved productivity, reduced absenteeism, and a more engaged workforce, all of which contribute to long-term success and growth.

We believe that by working together, we can create a healthier, more productive environment that benefits everyone involved.

High quality care with Health Canada approved Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitor (ABPM). 24-hour report which grasps all the fluctuations of the blood pressure corresponding to its changes with your routine activities.

What is ABPM?
It’s a way to measure your blood pressure continuously over 24 hours while you go about your daily activities, including during sleep.
