t was a day of celebration—one filled with traditional native blessings, hearty smiles and glowing accomplishment from officials and staff of the Riverside-San Bernardino Health Incorporated. A ribbon cutting was held on Friday January 30 to celebrate the grand opening of the San Manuel Clinic, located at 11980 Mt. Vernon Avenue in the city of Grand Terrace. The opening of the new clinic was made possible by a $2 million grant provided by the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians. The clinic, which will serve around 6,670 patients from the Native American communities of Riverside and San Bernardino, now has the space to add future Radiology services for the growing patient population and will continue to provide comprehensive, coordinated attention for patients during their visits in multiple areas. Those areas include family practice, behavioral health, preventative care, podiatry—as well as endocrinology, and internal medicine through a telemedicine program. Among the officials present at the grand opening were Riverside-San Bernardino Health Incorporated Chief Executive Office Jess Montoya, their Board President Annette Chihuahua, and San Manuel Band of Mission Indians Chairwoman Lynn Valbuena. The opening of the new clinic in Grand Terrace is only a San Manuel Clinic cont. on next page
