Richmond Integrated Community Health (RICH) Clinic Team
During the past several months, this team dedicated significant time and effort to holding a celebratory recognition of the RICH Clinic's 10 years of service. Over the course of several months, which culminated in 2 events in July 2024, the team created unique ways in which to educate the individuals we serve, our staff as well as our community partners on the important services delivered by the RICH primary care clinic and combined office-based addiction treatment and care coordination services. Through funding primarily received from a RBH Foundation mini-grant, this team was able to provide educational activities related to healthy living, raffle prizes, health-related giveaways, family-focused goody bags, and the opportunity for clinic staff to spend time with clients outside of the exam room. Activities promoted wellness for our clients including blood pressure checks, harm reduction tools, Narcan education, and recipes and shopping lists for healthy eating on a budget. Also, ways of self-care, chair exercises and a mediation demonstration.
