In some rural areas, medical services may not be readily available to the community at large. Doctors and clinics may be many miles away in the nearest big city, making it difficult for people to receive basic medical treatments and screenings. Bringing in a mobile medical unit to the community is a great way to provide medical services to people living in remote areas.
Community
It can be difficult to staff a local clinic in a remote area. Some doctors prefer to work in urban areas where they can see more patients on a regular basis. There may be a shortage of doctors or trained medical professionals in the region. This is where a mobile medical unit comes into play. Medical staff like nurses, nurse practitioners, technicians, and dentists, can bring t.he necessary services directly into the communities that are underserviced. Patients can be seen in their own neighborhood without having to drive hours in each direction to seek treatment. Basic tests can be done right on the vehicle, and patients can receive prescriptions and wellness checks, and talk to medical professionals about their health concerns all in one place before it moves on to the next community.
Customized Vehicle
A mobile medical unit can be customized to meet the needs of the communities it is servicing. When your vehicle is made for you, it is designed to your specifications to and planned to maximize space. Walls can be folded out in different configurations depending on the services that will be provided. Waiting areas, exam rooms, areas to provide health education can all be adjusted so that they can be used at the same time. Subject on the community’s needs, you can even add areas for dentistry, blood collection, mammography, and vision and hearing tests. There will also be room for an office area to take care of paperwork. Everything has a place and can be folded down and stored easily so that the unit can be moved to the next community effortlessly.
Using a mobile medical unit allows you to bring basic health and medical services into remote areas instead of having community members come to you.
