No, you do not have to be a registered nurse to take blood pressures. Many trained healthcare professionals, including medical assistants, nursing students, and even some fitness trainers, can measure blood pressure. However, proper training and understanding of the technique and equipment are essential to ensure accurate readings. Always follow local regulations and guidelines regarding who is authorized to perform such tasks.
