Every now and then I find myself forgetting to take my blood pressure

You might be able to get a daily reminder on your cellphone.
I use a iPhone and Apple Health gives me an audible reminder at 8:30 daily to take my statin. If I don’t clear the reminder, 30 minutes later it starts chirping.
I would think there is something similar for Android phones.

When I set an alarm in my android, I type in what the alarm is for. And, like the iPhone, it gives me an audible reminder of what the alarm is for. If I do not clear it, it gives me about three additional reminders (repeating the same information) every 15 minutes.
My iPad sounds an alarm that keeps going until I acknowledge it. If I don't acknowledge it after about 15 minutes, it turns itself off. So, I purposely set a highly annoying alarm that forces me to quickly acknowedge it.
I set the alarms on both my phone and my iPad so that I have a back up in case one fails to go off.
