Direct services are primarily conducted in the Castries office. The clinic offers tests for blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, urine analysis, and body mass index, as well as one-on-one personal counseling. Basic foot care is also offered. Because individuals have one-on-one interaction, the SLDHA is able to give very personal advice on how to better improve diet and exercise, as well as treating related complications.
