📍 What is Asset Mapping — and Why Does Your Mobile Health Program Need It? Asset mapping is more than a visual, it’s a simple but powerful way to understand your community’s resources and strengths. For mobile health programs, it helps you see what services already exist, where gaps may be, and how to best connect with local partners.

From hospitals and housing supports to community leaders and cultural events, mapping assets gives you a full picture of your ecosystem — so you can make data-driven decisions, avoid duplication, and align your work with community priorities.

In our latest blog, we break down:

✔️ What asset mapping is and why it matters

✔️ How to create a map, categorize assets, and choose the right visualization tools

✔️ Ways to use your map to strengthen outreach, partnerships, and program planning

💡 We’ve also included a free template to help you identify, categorize, and track key community assets. Use it to document resources, identify gaps, and plan strategic partnerships.

📬 Have questions or want support creating your asset map? Reach out to Kait Guild, our Manager of Evaluation and Strategic Relationships, for guidance.

🚨 In Torrington, WY, a Vietnam veteran is fighting to keep healthcare close to home.

For 14 years, a VA mobile clinic has been a lifeline for 170 local veterans—bringing routine care right where it’s needed most. But with the closure of the Torrington VFW post, this clinic is now at risk of shutting down.

👉 Vietnam veteran Richard Dooley is raising his voice to protect this vital service. His message is clear: mobile healthcare matters. For rural veterans, it can mean the difference between timely care and traveling hours for basic services.

This is more than a local story—it’s a powerful reminder that mobile health keeps care accessible, personal, and close to home.

📢 We’re standing with Richard and every veteran who depends on mobile health. Stories like this show why mobile clinics across the country are so essential — bringing care to those who need it most.

Prostate cancer diagnoses are climbing again. According to the American Cancer Society, advanced-stage cases are rising 6% every year, and Black men face twice the death rate compared to any other group. Too often, barriers like cost, transportation, or stigma keep men from getting screened.

💡 The solution: Mobile clinics are stepping up to close these gaps — bringing screenings, care, and peace of mind directly into neighborhoods.

This week, Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University, with support from the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation and in collaboration with Mount Sinai Health System, launched the Winship Mobile Prostate Cancer Screening Program! 🚐✨

As Dr. Suresh S. Ramalingam, MD, Executive Director of Winship Cancer Institute, shared: “This initiative reflects the best of what can be achieved when health systems, community leaders and philanthropy come together for a common cause. This bus will conceivably be a beacon of hope on wheels, traveling out into communities, providing vital health information to more Georgians so they can make informed decisions to get treatment sooner, while still treatable and manageable.”

Early detection saves lives — and mobile health is leading the way to make sure more men get that chance.

No two mobile clinics are staffed exactly alike. Some are led by doctors or nurses. Others are powered by the incredible dedication of Community Health Workers (CHWs).

CHWs are more than staff — they are neighbors, advocates, and trusted voices. They meet people where they are, break down barriers to care, and remind us that healthcare is about connection, dignity, and empowerment.

At Mobile Health Map, we’ve seen their impact up close:

❤️ Building trust within communities

❤️ Making health education accessible and relatable

❤️ Guiding clients to vital social supports

❤️ Empowering people to take charge of their own well-being

It’s the model we use for our own mobile clinic in Boston, The Family Van —where CHWs have been the heartbeat of care for over 30 years.

During National Community Health Worker Awareness Week, we celebrate CHWs everywhere for the compassion, strength, and hope they bring to health across the country. ❤️

✨ This is how we like to start the week! The Oregon Office of Rural Health has been awarded $1 million to launch a Mobile Integrated Health pilot in Wheeler County — expanding access, strengthening EMS-clinic partnerships, and creating a model for other rural communities to follow. 🚑

From our work, we know some EMS teams across the country are already using mobile health for prevention — keeping people healthier, reducing 911 calls, and lowering costs. This investment will help Oregon communities do the same.

🙌 Huge thanks to Senator Ron Wyden and Senator Jeff Merkley for championing this important step forward!

As Senator Jeff Merkley shared: “This vital federal grant will ensure Wheeler County residents are able to access the health care services and resources they need and deserve.”

When a clinic in Tennessee shut its doors after 30 years, it could’ve meant less access to care. But the Hamilton County Health Department didn’t walk away — they drove forward.

💡 The solution? A mobile health unit delivering essential care to more people, in more places, five days a week. From grocery store parking lots to the most remote corners of the county, this mobile clinic is meeting folks where they are— no insurance, no problem.

“Now, instead of providing care to just one community... we can go to all parts of the north end of the county, and even start to go to other parts... that are quite remote,” said Dr. Stephen Miller, Health Officer.

👏 A shift in resources. A bold step for equity. Healthcare, wherever it’s needed.

For National Health Center Week, we’re spotlighting three community health centers using mobile clinics to bring trusted care right where it is needed! ❤️

🚐 Community Health Center of Franklin County, Inc. (MA) – Serving rural towns where transportation can be a major barrier, their Mobile Health Unit provides a full spectrum of care, including primary and medical care, behavioral health services, pediatric care, reproductive care, addiction treatment services, and dental care.

🚌 Chiricahua Community Health Centers, Inc. (AZ) – Traveling to remote desert towns and border communities, their “Big Blue Bus” provides childhood vaccinations, health screenings, and preventive care to families who might otherwise go without.

🚑 Camai Community Health Center (AK) – Reaching isolated fishing villages and rural hubs in the Bristol Bay region, their mobile outreach offers culturally sensitive care without requiring hours — or even days — of travel.

Together, they show how mobile clinics turn the mission of community health centers into action: meeting people where they are, no matter where that is.

In parts of rural Illinois, expectant moms have to travel up to 59 miles just to reach a birthing hospital. That’s the reality of maternity care deserts — and it puts mothers and babies at risk.

But now, a powerful solution is rolling out.

With a $1.5M grant from Meridian of Illinois and the Centene Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Centene, OSF HealthCare is expanding its OnCall Connect program with a mobile maternity clinic — bringing prenatal and postpartum care directly to women in eight Central Illinois counties.

From blood pressure checks and sonograms to breastfeeding support and depression screenings, this mobile unit offers comprehensive, personalized care where it’s needed most.

👏 This is a leading example of how mobile health can help bridge critical care gaps and address maternal health inequities in rural communities.

💖 Every woman in Indiana deserves the best chance to stay healthy and strong. While breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the state, early detection can make all the difference — boosting survival rates to nearly 99% when caught early.
