Addressing Health Concerns in the Lowcountry
Our mission is to deliver hope and health to under-served populations and communities that need it most. The Palmetto Palace’s Mobile Health Unit has allowed us to show up for our neighbors and bring needed health care services to uninsured and underinsured residents. The Mobile Health Unit utilizes a collaborative health care team-based approach to provide screenings, vaccinations, health checkups, and other primary care services; dental care (including oral screenings, cleanings, and fluoride treatments); and health education.
Mobile Health Unit services help detect previously undiagnosed conditions, strengthen care coordination and continuity, improve disease management, and reduce costly ED visits and avoidable inpatient hospitalizations. In communities where accessibility to health care has a major impact on quality of life, mobile outreach allows health care to be delivered where it is most needed.
