Mobile Health Unit
Saint Agnes is proud to partner with Fresno County Department of Public Health (FCDPH) to provide health services to communities in need through the Rural Mobile Health program. Launched in February 2023, the two-year program is funded through a $5.2 million allocation of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds by the Fresno County Board of Supervisors.
Saint Agnes, University of California San Francisco-Fresno and Fresno State's Mobile Health Unit provide medical services at no cost to agricultural workers and residents living in rural areas of Fresno County.
Community Health Works (CHWs) also assist at mobile health events by providing education on various health-related topics and help individuals connect with nearby primary care providers and social resources. The Rural Mobile Health program aims to make health care more accessible and equitable for people living in rural Fresno County. In Fiscal Year 2024, Saint Agnes invested more than $56,000 and provided care to nearly 300 individuals.
