AHMEDABAD, India - May 9, 2017 - PRLog -- Now a days, parents are staying alone due to nuclear family. Their children have their own priorities in career. Sometimes children are not aware of their parents' health condition. Online storage & tracking of health records and sharing it really helps them in taking care of health of their own & their parents.

With such purpose, Blood pressure checkup camp & an awareness program for Self-management of personal health via use of technology was organized in senior citizen club of 500 members on 19th January, 2017 by team members of KonectHealth.

During blood pressure checkup camp it was found that amongst all members, some members were already on treatment of high blood pressure and they keep log of their blood pressure readings in some paper or diary. They were demonstrated how to store and track such blood pressure readings online by using KonectHealth app or website and that's how they can access them anytime on mobile and can share to their family doctor. Surprisingly, there were some members who first time got to know that they had high blood pressure. Thus they became aware about their health condition and were guided for how they can manage their health using KonectHealth app.

After the camp, an awareness session was conducted regarding importance of health, Use of Technology to maintain health and health records, Sharing experiences with community having similar health conditions through KonectHealth forums and how to get reliable information regarding health issues via KonectHealth registered doctors.
