Meaghanne Thompson, a guest speaker at a health expo hosted by the Good Samaritan Health Clinic in Cullman, Alabama, shared valuable insights into living with diabetes. The event took place on June 28 and was attended by patients of the clinic as well as community members. Staff from the Alabama Cooperative Extension System provided information on nutrition, diabetes management, and simple home fitness routines.
During the expo, Della Bramley demonstrated proper food portions and meal sizes while guests were able to sample healthy snacks. Shanetria Orr led guests through fun home exercises to promote physical activity. Guests also had the opportunity to take home door prizes such as resistance band sets for exercise and bags of fresh produce grown by Master Gardener Brad Mitchell through the Grow More Give More program.
As the clinic nears its 20th anniversary, plans are being made for more events like this in the future to promote wellness and prevention among patients and the community. Executive Director Jolanda Hutson expressed her excitement about these plans and invited everyone to attend one of the Open House events scheduled for August to learn more about the clinic’s services, impact, and future plans.
Looking ahead to the future, Good Samaritan Health Clinic is planning to build a new, expanded facility on Veterans Drive in 2025. The new location will have a larger waiting room to accommodate after-hours patient education classes and events.
