The value of mobile health in
our community
Between July 2023 and July 2024, CHP’s Mobile Health team criss-crossed the county, holding 503 clinics at town halls, fire stations, libraries, senior housing, shelters, public events, and parks.
Accessibility: Not everyone can easily get to a medical facility. Lack of nearby options or transportation issues can get in the way of seeing a doctor.
Approachability: Some people don’t feel at ease in traditional healthcare spaces. The Mobile Health clinics meet them where they are, delivering care to those who are less likely to come into our brick-and-mortar locations.
Flexibility: The Mobile Health team can change direction quickly and easily, responding to urgent needs within the community—such as offering Covid-19 vaccinations during the pandemic.
Outreach: In addition to providing healthcare services, the Mobile Health team connects patients to much-needed social support services such as WIC, housing assistance, food and nutrition programs, insurance enrollment, and more.
With the generous support of community partners and donors, the Mobile Health Units are kept fueled up and on the road!
