Meet the Thundermist Mobile Medical Unit: Rolling Thunder
Our mobile medical unit (nicknamed Rolling Thunder) is a convenient way for people to get care they need outside of the health center walls. Our care teams park the unit outside of partner sites in the communities we serve throughout the week.
