mobile clinic

Healthcare on wheels

A mobile clinic is a healthcare facility housed in a vehicle—typically a van, bus, or trailer—that travels to underserved areas to provide medical services.

Mobile clinics bring basic care, screenings, vaccinations, or dental services to communities with limited access to traditional facilities: The mobile clinic visits rural towns twice a month.
