Clinica Sierra Vista’s Mobile Unit Program continued to expand across Kern and Fresno Counties, delivering more than 1,200 clinical encounters and administering 800+ vaccines this year. With support from the Kern Health Systems Quality Grant, we launched our third mobile clinic, the Steve Schilling Mobile Unit, to reach families facing barriers such as transportation, homelessness, or lack of insurance. Operating three full days a week, the program established regular clinics at two recovery centers and added a full-day clinic at Poverello House, ensuring high-need communities have consistent access to care where they live and seek support.
Our mobile units provide full primary care, chronic disease management, mental-health medication refills, women’s health services (including contraceptive injections and Nexplanon), addiction medicine, HIV prevention and treatment, and gender-affirming care. They also administer a broad range of preventive vaccines, strengthening community immunity and reducing infectious disease transmission. Beyond medical care, these units act as trusted access points, helping patients connect to mental health services, ECM, and ID/voucher programs. Each mobile clinic is staffed by a dedicated team of three Medical Assistants, one LVN, and a lead provider, delivering every visit with dignity, quality, and compassion.
“Compassion is at the heart of every visit. Our mission goes beyond medicine; it’s about restoring dignity, hope, and trust in care.” – Tara Amini, Physician Assistant
