RiskBusters provides patients and the community-at-large with healthy lifestyle classes. These include nutrition-rich cooking demonstrations in the Clinic’s H-E-B Teaching Kitchen, cardio-focused exercise, and nutritional grocery shopping classes. County-wide health and wellness fairs and events are also part of the program.

Patients are typically referred to RiskBusters during their Primary Care visit or based on the results of health questionnaires. Patients may have a variety of risk factors: high blood pressure and/or cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, or smoking. Participants work with counselors to help change unhealthy behaviors and address underlying contributing health risks such as anxiety and depression.
