Abstract

In 2022, Penn State College of Medicine launched the LION Mobile Clinic, a teaching mobile health clinic offering preventive health services in rural Snow Shoe, Pennsylvania. We outline four challenges the clinic team faced in implementation, along with adaptations made to tailor the model to Snow Shoe's needs and opportunities.
