BRINGING HEALTHCARE TO YOU
Trillium launched seven traveling care vehicles, thanks to funding provided by NCDHHS through the federal Substance Abuse Treatment Block Grant. We partnered with PORT Health, Monarch, Coastal Horizons, and RHA for the units to see people living in 19 counties.
Trillium saw the pandemic as a reminder of the health care inequalities experienced by people of color, rural residents, and Medicaid-insured individuals across the counties we serve. We launched the One Community Initiative to help with the stress, anxiety, depression and general mental health challenges caused by the pandemic.
Across the United States, we have also seen an increase in mental health crises caused by the anxiety and grief of the pandemic. Unfortunately, too many people have been visiting emergency rooms when they have these crises, particularly those who are uninsured, Medicaid-insured, or people of color.
Each provider will cover the following areas:
While specific services at each unit may be different based on provider or local needs, they are expected to offer the following:
- Mental health screenings
- Substance use disorder treatment
- Traditional therapy
- Assertive outreach
- Medication management via telemedicine
- Care management
- Peer support
- Crisis and Disaster Response
As the needs of communities grow, clinics may offer physical health services such as general health checkups and vaccinations (like flu or pneumonia)
In the future, we hope the mobile clinics will be able to provide Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) for individuals experiencing with opioid addiction.
