Abstract

By combining traditional services and resources, the HealthQuest mobile van travels through six counties in northeast Indiana to reach those who have no easy access to health care. Existing programs that focus on meeting the needs of infants, children and adults living in rural communities via the use of mobile primary care vans are reviewed as well as this recently developed program.
