The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently designated 32 physicians and clinical practices as the 2024 Million Hearts® Hypertension Control Champions. Among those named were three of Wayne Memorial Community Health Centers’ (WMCHC) primary care practices: Forest City Family Health Center; Hamlin Family Health Center and Pike Family Health Center. Additionally, WMCHC was also recognized as an organization in 2024. These offices and WMCHC, join the ranks of only 199 champions nationwide who have reached this milestone. The Million Hearts® Hypertension Control Challenge is a program that recognizes practices that achieve hypertension or high blood pressure (BP) control rates of at least 80%.
