Chelsea Allen

Servant fièrement : Sobeys #7273 Northfield Waterloo, ON

Poste : Registered Dietitian

Valeur fondamentale : Proudly Serve Our Communities

For Chelsea, the best part of her job with Sobeys Pharmacy is being in a position to educate customers. « My Sobeys is a classroom, » says Chelsea. « There’s a missing piece in healthcare: teaching people not only what to eat but how to pick out and prepare healthy food. I fill that role. » Chelsea provides nutrition classes that are popular, successful and educational. She also embraced the expansion of her role to include individual consults and was the first member of the Ontario team to reach 10 consults. Reaching even just one Canadian demonstrates how worthwhile the role is, says Chelsea, who talks about one patient in particular who has been coming to class for more than a year. « Her health has improved quite a bit as indicated by cutting in half one of her medications and she’s just feeling better, » says Chelsea. « It’s been really great to watch her transformation. »
