Meet our mobile clinic team! 💙🚐

The Outreach Community Health Centers Mobile Unit, in collaboration with Ascension Wisconsin, brings compassionate care directly to neighborhoods across the Milwaukee community. In the mobile unit, Ascension Wisconsin clinicians are dedicated to making care more accessible and welcoming.

For Nancy Leahy, NP, the best part of working in the mobile unit is “meeting people right in their neighborhood, often within walking distance. We have an opportunity to provide medical care in a unique way.”

Brenda Buchanan, RN, says that a moment in the clinic that stood out to her was: “Caring for a 92-year-old woman who walked over from her senior housing unit next door to receive care for a chronic illness. Because of our location, she didn't have to worry about finding transportation to receive care.”

We’re proud to meet people where they are and help make quality health care easier to access. 💕

When we, or those we love, become sick, everything changes. Routines are upended, roles are reversed and the future can be uncertain. Jesus experienced and bore these burdens in his lifetime and meets us with mercy, comfort and compassion.

Today we pray for those who come to our country as immigrants in search of economic opportunity, but out of desperation take jobs that force them into situations of exploitation.
In Galatians, we are reminded that "There is neither slave nor free person. … for you are all one in Christ." In this spirit of unity, open our eyes and hearts to our sisters and brothers who seek dignified lives but instead find themselves terrorized by modern-day slavery.
