We'll explore the Health Belief Model that guided my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) project, "Establishing a New Standard of Care: Use of Automated Office Blood Pressure Monitoring in Primary Care."

🎯 To understand the rationale behind this project, we need to discuss the Health Belief Model (HBM), a psychological framework that examines individuals' beliefs and perceptions about health threats and the benefits of taking action to mitigate those threats.
