Patient Story-June 2023

A Doorway to Many Needed Services

Attending the monthly Nutrition Classes offered by SBCHC’s Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist introduced Yolanda and her family to the many other services and programs available through the health center. Here are her experiences in her own words:

I have being attending the Nutrition classes since last year 2022.  I find them every interesting and informative.  My children and I have learned a lot from these classes that are being offered from SBCHC.  I enjoy and can’t wait to attend the following class, because each class has a different topic.  I learned how to read the nutrition facts and also a better way to eat healthy and stay healthy.  The best thing is I will be able to prepare healthy meals for all my family.  The Dietitian gives us ideas and examples on better ways to substitute items for a healthier one.

Yolanda and her children attend the 2023 Walk for Wellness.

I also attend the pre-diabetes program.  I couldn’t be happier in attending the class once a week.  In these classes I have learned much more on what and when to eat.  This program is what I was waiting for because I am more aware on how to eat and the calories I need depending on your weight.  I already know how to calculate my BMI.   The instructor is really good on explaining and he lets us participate in our opinions.

I would like to thank the staff and the person who organizes the events.   Without these kinds of events I wouldn’t know everything I learned in these classes. I thank and appreciate everyone for the time you spent helping us.

Sincerely,

Yolanda
