The van is the latest in a national network fleet of mobile medical units developed by Children’s Health Fund.

Each van exam room will be equipped with flat-screen monitors and tablets loaded with interactive technology and health education resources. 

Patients will be able to draw on the tablet to explain to their provider symptoms which they may not otherwise be able to describe.
