B. THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMMATIC MILESTONES WERE ACHIEVED IN 2022: 1. MEDICALLY TAILORED MEALS PROGRAM HELPING OUR CLIENTS BETTER MANAGE THEIR CHRONIC DISEASE BY PROVIDING MEDICALLY TAILORED MEALS IS ALWAYS A PRIMARY FOCUS FOR OPEN HAND. IN 2022, APPROXIMATELY 51% OF OUR CLIENTS REPORTED SPENDING FEWER DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL, 60% REPORTED IMPROVEMENT IN AT LEAST ONE HEALTH INDICATOR AND 24% REPORTED THEY ARE MORE EASILY ABLE TO TAKE THEIR MEDICATIONS AS A RESULT OF RECEIVING HEALTHY, NUTRITIOUS PREPARED MEALS.

IN ORDER TO REACH ADDITIONAL CLIENTS, OPEN HAND MADE SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS TO UPDATE OPERATIONAL PROCESSES TO FREEZE AND SHIP MEALS PROVIDING ACCESS TO MEDICALLY FRAGILE INDIVIDUALS ACROSS THE STATE. 2. AS A COMPONENT OF OUR MEDICALLY TAILORED MEALS PROGRAM, OUR HOME-DELIVERED MEAL CLIENTS HAVE ACCESS TO OPEN HAND RDNS TO CONSULT WITH THEM ABOUT THEIR NUTRITION AND HEALTH AS IT RELATES TO THEIR CHRONIC DISEASE. AMONG THOSE THAT HAD SEEN AN OPEN HAND RDN IN 2022, 85% REPORTED A CHANGE IN THEIR NUTRITION-RELATED HABITS SUCH AS SHOPPING FOR HEALTHIER FOODS WHILE GROCERY SHOPPING, LEARNING HOW TO PREPARE HEALTHY MEALS ON THEIR OWN, OR LEARNING HOW TO READ NUTRITION FACTS AND INGREDIENT LABELS. 3.

THE PROGRAM CONCURRENTLY PROVIDED WEEKLY PRODUCE BOX DISTRIBUTION DURING THE SIX WEEKS OF CLASSES AND CONTINUED FOR 18 WEEKS AFTER THE CONCLUSION OF CLASSES. THE PROGRAM GREW IN SOUTH GEORGIA TO REACH MORE PARTICIPANTS, INCLUDING SPANISH-SPEAKING COMMUNITIES. OPEN HAND ALSO BEGAN A PRX PROGRAM FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV/AIDS WITH ADDITIONAL FUNDING FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF HIV ELIMINATION IN ATLANTA. THE EVALUATION FINDINGS SUGGEST THAT THE PRX PROGRAM SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED FOOD SECURITY BY OVER 5% AND ENHANCED HEALTHY EATING HABITS, INCLUDING AN INCREASE IN THE VARIETY OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES CONSUMED ALONGSIDE A DECREASE IN CONSUMPTION OF FRIED FOODS AND SUGAR-SWEETENED BEVERAGES. WITH REGARDS TO FOOD CHOICES, CONFIDENCE WITH PROCURING AND PREPARING HEALTHY FOODS INCREASED BY OVER 10% ACROSS ALL COHORTS. LASTLY, WE HAVE OBSERVED IMPROVEMENTS IN HEALTH AND WELLBEING OVER THE 6-MONTH PROGRAM, NOTING DECREASES IN PARTICIPANTS' BODY MASS INDEX (BMI) AND SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE LEVELS FROM A BASELINE TO MIDLINE THRESHOLD, WHICH WERE SUSTAINED THROUGH THE END OF THE 6-MONTH PROGRAM. 5.

THE SECOND PART OF THIS PROGRAM IS PROVIDING GROUP NUTRITION EDUCATION TO OLDER ADULTS AT THEIR LOCAL SENIOR CENTERS.

OPEN HAND'S NUTRITION EDUCATION PROVIDES 30-45 MINUTES OF ENGAGING NUTRITION DISCUSSION AROUND PREPARING MEALS ON A BUDGET, SLEEP AND NUTRITION, DIABETES MANAGEMENT, AND MANY OTHER TOPICS. THE RDNS PROVIDE THESE LESSONS THROUGH THE VIRTUAL PLATFORM ZOOM AND THEY PROVIDE PRE AND POST LESSON SURVEYS TO TEST KNOWLEDGE GAINED AND LIKEABILITY OF THE ZOOM LESSON. 6. FOLLOWING THE SUCCESS OF THE POST-DISCHARGE MEAL PROGRAM IN 2021 AND RECOGNIZING THAT NUTRITION IS CRITICAL FOR PATIENTS RECOVERING FROM HOSPITALIZATION, OPEN HAND ATLANTA EXPANDED THE PROGRAM TO LOCAL HEALTH SYSTEMS AND THE KAISER PERMANENTE HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATION IN 2022.
