Our Care & Connect Mobile Health program was designed to help people get access to health care. From emergency dental services to mental health screenings, we’re here to serve people who are struggling to get care.
Our goal is to make sure that people who face significant barriers to care can see a provider. We won’t turn away a patient with emergency dental needs who has no other way to get care.
All services are free for our patients.
We’re proud to serve communities who have otherwise been left behind by the health care system. There are a few criteria we require patients to meet before seeking care at our clinics.
Patients qualify for our clinics if any of the following apply to their situation:
We prioritize patients with urgent dental needs like dental pain, swelling or infection, decay, or broken teeth.
Our goal is to keep people out of pain by addressing our patients’ most urgent needs. We are also able to connect patients to ongoing care.
When a patient comes to a mobile health clinic, they’ll be welcomed by a friendly intake provider who will help them check in. Once paperwork is completed, the patient will go onto the dental van for their visit. Often, a nurse will give the patient a full health screening while there.
Here is a list of our primary services:
Some specialty clinics offer oral surgery, root canals, sealants, and hygiene services.
Please note that we do not provide the following services:
We’re a mobile program, so our clinic locations change every day. The best way to find a clinic is through our clinic calendar.
See Clinic Calendar
Some clinics require pre-scheduled appointments. A phone number is listed next to the date. Please call for an appointment. Other clinics are open to walk-ins.
If a clinic is fully booked and a patient needs urgent services, we recommend arriving when the clinic opens to be first on the walk-in list.
Our program doesn’t replace the value of a regular clinic, or ‘care home’ for patients. We aim to connect all of our patients with a long-term care home. That’s why we work with patients to connect them with services. We hope they’ll continue their dental or medical care in a sustainable way after we’ve moved on.
As a part of our mission to support the public safety net, we frequently refer patients to a vast network of organizations. That includes local community health centers, federally qualified health centers, and other free or low-cost clinics.
