Street medicine
We bring the clinic to the street.
Street medicine is care for unsheltered people experiencing homelessness — in encampments, parks and under bridges.
1
Assess
Vitals, blood pressure and skin checks performed wherever someone is.
2
Treat
Wound care, first aid, vaccines like hepatitis and tetanus, OTC medicine.
3
Educate
Practical guidance that helps people stay well between visits.
On wheels
Our mobile unit goes where clinics can't.
Stocked with supplies and staffed by nurses, paramedics and volunteers, the On The Spot bus rotates through our outreach stops each week.
85%
of our supplies are donated — many from neighbors' unused Medicare OTC benefits.
