  ABSTRACT: Hypertension is a public health problem that affects both developed and developing countries. Senegal is making significant progress in the fight against this and other chronic, non-communicable diseases. Achieving blood pressure control within three months of treatment is an important pillar of Senegal’s strategy. The objective of this study was to evaluate the achievement of blood pressure control within three months of treatment at SCL. Our results show the need to strengthen blood pressure management skills of healthcare staff.
