Preventive Health Services

Our team is comprised of Health Educators, who strive to help people make better health decisions through support, encouragement, and health-related education. We are part of the Preventive Health Services, Education & Training Department (PHSET) and work closely with all departments at Sea Mar to ensure comprehensive health services are provided to Sea Mar patients and community members alike.

Sea Mar Health Educators are an essential part of the care and support system of our patients! They support patients living with chronic diseases through one-on-one appointments, groups, and community-based classes. They meet with patients and their families to provide chronic disease management and support when they need it. More specifically, they offer education on diabetes, prediabetes, cholesterol, blood pressure, glucometer teaching, basic nutrition, asthma, tobacco cessation, family planning, exercise, among other topics. At each visit, the health educator spends time with the patient to set goals that help the patient achieve better health outcomes.

As well, our team offers free group and community classes!! These include exercise groups, cooking workshops, yoga, diabetes management, and gardening. For more information about these offerings, please contact the health educator at your clinic.

We look forward to serving you, your family and your community.
