Mobile Medical Units

A mobile medical unit is a van that’s been converted into a mobile clinic, treatment, or transportation space. 

At AVAN Mobility, our mobile medical units are built on the Ram Promaster.

We have four distinct types of mobile medical units: the Mobile Response Unit (MR Model), the Mobile Clinic Unit (MC Model), the Mobile Outreach Unit (MO Model) and the Mobile Mitigation Unit (MM Model). 

They each serve a different purpose. 

The MR Model is an ambulance-like van for those who need medical transport but a full emergency service isn’t necessary. 

The MC Model is a mobile medical treatment space that provides primary healthcare and other services to underserved populations.

The MO Model is a method of community outreach to people experiencing homelessness, addiction, or other conditions that cause them to rely on external support for daily living. 

The MM Model is a van designed specifically for supervised consumption and harm reduction services.

Each vehicle is available with a variety of floor plan layouts and features such as beds, cabinets, seats, a mobile office, and more to best suit your organization’s needs.

Each mobile medical unit we offer at AVAN Mobility is tailored to your organization’s specific needs. 

The MC Model

If your community is remote and you often find community members aren’t able to travel to a health center or hospital for treatment, the MC Model is right for you. 

The MC model allows you to take healthcare services to clients, eliminating the need for them to travel.

The MO Model

If your program provides services such as overdose prevention, harm reduction, mobile health, housing, mental health and addictions counseling, or referrals, then the MO Model is right for you.

The MO model provides a transportation option and a clinic space in one, allowing you to maximize the potential of your service.

The MR Model

If you’re a program that needs all the elements of an ambulance without the life-saving equipment, the MR Model is right for you. 

The MR Model provides a simplified treatment space for non-urgent medical needs and transportation.

The MM Model

If your a program needs the capability to offer supervised consumption by a medical professional, the MM Model may be a fit. This van’s purpose is to reduce substance use on the streets and provide harm reduction services for clients using substances.

Mobile medical vans are used by many different groups, including:

Native reservations and communities

In many reservations and Native communities, patients are located too far from a health center to have access to basic health care. 

Mobile medical units are used to visit patients at their homes or nearby locations.

Housing and homeless societies

Initiatives that work to end homelessness need a way to address their clients’ needs right where they are. 

Mobile medical units give these programs a safe working environment. Social workers can have an on-demand treatment space, with supplies and personnel to best serve their clients.

Addictions services

Addictions services are often offered in traditional facilities. However, mobile medical units provide a safe, private, approachable space for persons in need to get addictions help without the stigma of going into a clinic.

Non-emergency response services

Mobile medical units offer a medical space for non-urgent medical needs. Services such as bloodwork, physical exams, first aid, and stretcher transportation are all possible in a custom mobile medical unit.

Industrial safety companies

Industrial safety companies that respond to workplace accidents require a mobile treatment unit that carries the supplies, equipment, and personnel needed.
