Each month, we continue to highlight initiatives happening in the region as they correspond to our region's Collective Health Agenda (CHA), the action-oriented report that details the specifics of what our medical community is doing in the three priority healthcare issues of Heart Disease & Stroke Prevention, Mental Health Treatment, and Housing Stability. Today we focus on the Hamilton County 513Relief Bus, a mobile resource center funded by Hamilton County that brings health, social, and economic services directly into communities! The team at UC Health serves as the premier medical partner to the bus, providing staffing and logistical support throughout its annual run from late February-November (providing over 1000+ screenings in FY’25). Through this partnership, UC Health is empowering healthier communities through mobile care, trusted partnerships, and inclusive outreach.
The bus’s focus on Cardiovascular Health, (providing blood pressure, glucose, and cholesterol screenings), delivers on the commitment to improve our region’s heart health challenges. The 513Relief Bus also works to chip away at both Mental Health and Housing Stability challenges due to how team members provide customized social wrap-around services and other varied healthcare offerings depending on what community members need most. A fantastic initiative.
