The Mobile Health Unit brings health education and services directly to communities.
It can be easier to manage your family’s healthcare needs when you can find resources and talk to healthcare experts in your local community. These experts can help you find the right care, make healthier food choices, reduce your risk for disease, and get health insurance for you and your family.
Through our Mobile Health Unit, the Immigrant Health and Cancer Disparities Service at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center brings these services to where you live, work, shop, or worship.
