John, 78 years old, is a sometimes homeless veteran. He is missing many teeth from years of no dental care. John receives a monthly retirement check but he has great difficulty meeting his monthly bills, let alone buying enough food, and this has caused many evictions. When he can afford them, John has his prescriptions filled for a diuretic (for high blood pressure) and a statin (for high cholesterol). John isnt sure what his current weight is, but he has had to tighten his belt to the last notch over the past eight months. He has no family with whom he is still in contact, and he eats all of his meals alone. At a neighbors insistence, John is visiting the local senior center to eat lunch for the first time.
