About Our Mobile Clinics
The Tzu Chi Medical Foundation’s mobile clinics bring more than 16 years of experience delivering free mobile vision, medical, dental and cancer screening services. Mobile units are fully staffed by volunteers and are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and supplies to provide high-quality preventive and restorative dental care, eye examinations and prescription glasses, medical consultations, cancer screenings and health education services. Our routine mobile events also make follow-ups and regular check-ups possible. They specifically aim to offer quality care to the uninsured and underinsured, including those who are low-income, homeless, senior and migrant workers, as well as those we welcome on-site at schools, churches and allied health and human services agencies. We also partake in large-scale multi-day community events, including health fairs, and host our own medical outreaches across the country.
Embedded in all of our services is a focus on improving the overall health of local residents who face language and culture barriers through preventive health education, healthy nutrition and dietary advice, promoting physical exercise and adopting healthy lifestyles. We sponsor dialysis support groups, diabetes and chronic disease management programs, healthy lifestyle workshops, exercise classes, stress management classes and walking groups.
