Street Medicine Team Improves Lives of Unhoused Patients | UC Davis School of Medicine

UC Davis Health and Sacramento County hit the streets to provide care in and around homeless encampments. The team includes a group from the UC Davis School of Medicine and another from the Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing (‪@UCDavisNursingSchool‬). Twice a week, for about the past year, they have cared for patients, most of whom are insured through Medi-Cal and can’t easily get to a hospital or clinic. The team provides comprehensive primary care services such as mental health care, medication, flu shots, wound care and physical exams. They also screen for sexually transmitted infections, provide HIV testing and treat substance abuse disorder.
