In this episode of Nonprofit Spotlight, Stephanie speaks with Dr. Nicole Person-Rennell, Medical Director of the University of Arizona Mobile Health Program, a long-standing initiative providing critical access to healthcare for uninsured community members throughout Southern Arizona.
Dr. Person Rennell discusses the many facets of the program, from family medicine and prenatal clinics to community health screenings, vaccine access, and partnerships that expand care to where it’s most needed. The program’s free prenatal care model is especially unique, offering comprehensive support for pregnant patients who find themselves unable to access insurance during a critical moment in their lives, with continuity of care that extends from pregnancy through delivery and postpartum needs.
They also discussed how the Mobile Health Program combines clinical expertise, mobile outreach, and community partnerships to meet the evolving health needs of underserved populations, ensuring that cost, transportation, or insurance status never stand in the way of essential healthcare.
