About the Mobile Healthcare and Wellness Clinic

The Mobile Healthcare & Wellness Clinic delivers barrier-free, Indigenous-led primary care directly to individuals experiencing inequitable access to healthcare. Our multidisciplinary team travels to encampments, shelters, community organizations, and other locations where care is needed most, meeting people where they are with dignity, compassion, and respect.

Guided by Aboriginal Health & Wellness Centre's holistic Medicine Wheel approach, we recognize that health is more than physical wellness. Our team provides integrated medical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and cultural supports while helping individuals navigate broader health and social service systems. Whether someone needs immediate medical care, housing connections, cultural supports, or help obtaining identification, we work together to provide coordinated, person-centred care.

Brian's Story

Brian’s story illustrates the depth and impact of this systems navigation work. He was first connected to MHC in acute crisis following a traumatic injury, having lost a finger due to gang violence. At that time, he was unhoused, navigating ongoing safety concerns, and facing significant barriers to accessing support, as he had been excluded from multiple service environments and required off-site coordination of care. The MHC team provided consistent outreach and began with immediate clinical care, including wound management, while simultaneously engaging in intensive systems navigation. This included connecting Brian to new housing resources, transporting him to obtain identification, and assisting him in regaining access to his bank accounts. Over time, MHC supported coordination of his healthcare needs, including medication management and daily access to OAT, as well as supporting his engagement with appointments and legal obligations. Through consistent relationship-building and coordination across systems, Brian was able to transition into housing, maintain his health needs, and engage more independently with services.

Jamie's Story

Jamie’s story highlights the importance of this MHC’s inclusive approach. Living with chronic transcience, substance use challenges, and identifying as trans/non-binary, Jamie faced significant barriers to safety and care. In shelter systems that are often divided strictly into male or female spaces, individuals who do not conform to these categories can experience heightened risk, discomfort, and isolation. These structural limitations made it difficult for Jamie to access safe and dignified support. Through a slow and consistent relationship built at Velma’s House, MHC was able to create a safe and affirming space for Jamie to engage in care. Jamie shared their goal of pursuing gender-affirming medical care and beginning a sobriety journey, and with the support from MHC, Jaime was able to initiate their medical transition. This milestone was acknowledged and celebrated by the team with their favourite cake on the mobile vehicle. More recently, the team has supported Jamie through coordinated systems navigation, including a warm hand-off to Sunshine House services to connect them to more relevant support at their current chapter of life.

Kendall's Story

The impact of home visits are illustrated in the care of a constituent who initially approached the team on the street for harm reduction supplies and was subsequently identified as pregnant with untreated syphilis. Although she was connected to midwifery services, she was unable to attend clinic-based care throughout her pregnancy. Through ongoing engagement and coordination with the midwifery team, MHC was able to provide home-based prenatal care, ensuring continuity of care despite barriers. As her pregnancy progressed, she developed pregnancy-induced hypertension, requiring urgent intervention. MHC collaborated with obstetrics to support her care by picking up and delivering antihypertensive medication, facilitating attendance at an urgent fetal assessment, and completing outstanding bloodwork and swabs within the community. She has since completed treatment for syphilis. While she remains at risk for preterm labour, she has received consistent prenatal care through home visits, despite never attending a traditional clinic appointment.
