To help residents of Greene County and surrounding areas access primary care more easily, UVA Health’s mobile care unit will make monthly visits to Stanardsville beginning Oct. 21.
Patients will be seen from 2-6 p.m. on the third Tuesday of every month at the Greene County Senior Center at 222 Main St.
“We have heard from many residents across Greene County asking for primary care services closer to where they live,” said Novella Thompson, administrator for UVA Health’s Population Health Department. “Our mobile care unit can create access, make it more convenient for patients to get the care they need, and reduce their travel times.”
The mobile care unit can help residents in several ways:
- If they would like to be seen for a non-emergency situation and cannot wait for a visit with their regular care provider.
- If they don’t have a regular care provider, the mobile care unit team can provide an initial consultation and then help them establish care at a UVA Health brick-and-mortar outpatient clinic.
- If they do not wish to establish care at an outpatient clinic, the unit can serve as their primary care provider.
