The UF Mobile Outreach Clinic travels daily to different medically underserved communities in Alachua County. We provide education and free primary care services including work/school physicals and prescription refills. Often, our patients belong to marginalized and minority populations; MOC seeks a group of diverse volunteers so that we are reflective of our patient population and can provide culturally competent and sensitive care to each unique patient.
Volunteers call and follow up with patients after their
clinic visit, addressing their social determinants of health and providing
external resources. Our Care Coordinators are an extremely valued asset for the
clinic. This is a great opportunity to learn and take tangible action against
health disparities in Alachua County!
Applications are now open for Spring 2022 until
October 22nd, 2021 at 11:59 pm. Link to applications: https://outreach.med.ufl.edu/
