Our Programs · Long-Term Care & Senior Health
Good care shouldn't get harder as you get older.
Checkups, vaccines, and friendly care teams, brought to senior facilities, senior centers, and the places older adults already gather.
What We Offer
Real care, without the long trip.
A doctor or nurse sees you where you live or gather. No bus rides, no waiting rooms.
Flu shots and other recommended vaccines, right in your building or at a nearby event.
Quick checks that catch problems early. These are the two conditions that matter most as we age.
Simple tests that tell you where you stand, explained in plain words.
If you don't have a regular doctor, we connect you to one, and help with the practical parts, like appointments.
On-site clinical teams, outbreak prevention, and response support for the places that care for older adults.
Most services are free. Our team speaks English and Spanish, and we can arrange other languages.

Why It Matters
Small checks now beat big emergencies later.
long-term care facilities where Prism teams provided outbreak control, vaccination, and clinical support for the Illinois Department of Public Health.
Prism Healthof Illinois adults live with more than one chronic condition, and the share grows with age.
Centers for Disease Control and Preventionof Illinois adults now have diabetes, up from under 10%. Most cases are manageable when caught early.
Illinois Department of Public HealthChronic conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes need regular check-ins, but for many older adults, every trip to a clinic is a whole day's project. So the checks get skipped, and small problems grow quietly. We bring the check-ins to you. Learn what your blood pressure and sugar numbers mean →
A Day at the Clinic
What a visit can look like
An 84-year-old hasn't had her flu shot this year. The pharmacy is three bus stops away, and winter sidewalks are no place for her walker. She mentions it to the activity director at her building.
Two weeks later, our team sets up in the common room downstairs. She gets her flu shot, a blood pressure check, and a printed record for her doctor, all before lunch, all without leaving the building. Half her neighbors come down too.
Common Questions
What older adults ask us.
How much does it cost?
Most services are free at community events and facility visits. You don't need insurance, and no one is turned away.
Do I have to travel to see you?
No. We come to you: senior facilities, senior centers, churches, libraries, and community events. That's the whole point of a mobile clinic.
Can my family come with me?
Yes. Bring whoever supports you. Family members are welcome at every visit, and they can ask questions too.
Do you replace my regular doctor?
No. We fill the gaps between visits and help you get to a regular doctor if you don't have one. You leave every visit with a record you can share with your doctor.
Which vaccines do you offer for older adults?
Flu shots and other vaccines recommended for older adults, based on what our clinical team carries that day. Ask at any event. If we don't have it, we'll tell you where to get it free.
