PHASE SMBP Community of Practice Hub

This is the landing page for the PHASE Community of Practice focused on implementing Self-Measured Blood Pressure (SMBP) programs. It involves PHASE participants who are prioritizing SMBP as a strategy to increase patient engagement, medication adherence, and blood pressure control.

The SMBP Community of Practice will work through the newly released NACHC SMBP Implementation Guide and meet regularly to share tips and challenges, with guidance from coach Jerry Osheroff. Interested in getting involved? Let Alexis know.

You can find all the resources from the SMBP CoP activities here. We’ll be developing the page as we go, so check back often.
