Mobile Health & Wellness

Why Health Providers Trust Craftsmen Industries for Mobile Clinics

A 2023 study by Harvard Medical School found that mobile clinics, on average, delivered primary care and preventive services at a lower cost per patient than other federally funded health centers. These essential services can bridge the gap between community health needs and traditional care delivery modes.

That’s exactly why choosing the right partner for mobile health solutions is critical. At Craftsmen Industries, we combine decades of fabrication experience with specialized medical knowledge to create vehicles that perform reliably in the field while enhancing patient experience.

Here’s why we’re among the most trusted platforms for mobile health vehicles in the U.S.:

Trusted Fabrication and Clinical Experience

With over 40 years of experience, we’ve built mobile solutions for health systems, nonprofits, public health agencies, and corporate wellness programs. Our in-house engineers and fabricators ensure every vehicle is durable, reliable, and built to handle repeated deployments.

Patient-Focused Layouts and Safety First Builds

Our designs prioritize patient flow and privacy to minimize cross traffic and support a smooth transition from intake to exam to exit. We apply medical-grade surfaces and infection control finishes to help keep clinical spaces clean and safe.

Complete Out-of-the-Box Solutions

We handle the entire project lifecycle, from concept design and engineering to clinical outfitting, branded graphics, staff training, and long-term service plans. This turnkey approach reduces coordination challenges and accelerates the launch of your program.

Get Comprehensive Mobile Health Services Tailored to Your Needs

According to a 20-year study, mobile health clinics save an average of 65 quality-adjusted life years annually and provide a return on investment of up to $36 for every dollar spent. These outcomes highlight the vital role of mobile health services in delivering preventive screenings, managing chronic diseases, and providing primary care to communities with limited access.

Every program has unique requirements, and our services reflect that flexibility. We build vehicles with modular layouts, scalable systems, and specialized clinical capabilities. 

Here’s a closer look at the key services that make our mobile health vehicles flexible, efficient, and ready for any healthcare program:

Design and Concept

We transform your program goals into practical floor plans that optimize patient flow from intake to exam. Modular walls and plug-and-play utilities allow quick reconfiguration for seasonal campaigns, vaccination drives, or ongoing care programs.

Clinical Outfitting and Equipment Integration

We integrate medical equipment to match your use cases, from point-of-care testing to medical imaging mounts and dental fit-outs. Equipment placement and storage are planned to support efficient workflow and infection control.

Power, Plumbing, and Climate Systems

Our mobile clinics are equipped with shore power, generators, and battery backups to maintain uninterrupted operation. Our medical-grade HVAC systems, HEPA filtration, and optional negative-pressure setups ensure patients and staff remain safe and comfortable.

Connectivity and Data Security

We provide bonded cellular internet, wired ethernet, and secure VPN-ready networks for telehealth, EMR access, and real-time data sharing. UPS protection ensures critical systems stay online at all times.

Accessibility and Safety

All layouts can include ADA-compliant ramps or lifts, wide doorways, and fire detection systems. Every design prioritizes patient and staff safety, making the clinic fully accessible and secure.

Retrofits and Upgrades

We modernize existing vehicles with updated clinical equipment, advanced refrigeration and HVAC systems, and full exterior graphics to extend service life and refresh your brand presence.

Our Proven Process to Get Your Mobile Clinic Up and Running

We follow a structured, transparent process that ensures your mobile clinic is delivered on time, on budget, and ready to operate.

Here’s our approach to mobilizing your mobile health vehicles: 

Step 1. Discovery and Program Planning

We start with a consult to map services, anticipated patient volumes, staffing, and deployment conditions. This step defines vehicle footprint, power requirements, and regulatory compliance needs.

Step 2. Concept Design and Budget

We present multiple floor plan options, equipment lists, and budget estimates. This enables clients to choose the optimal combination of exam rooms, specialized systems, and operational flexibility.

Step 3. Engineering and Approvals

Our engineering team handles structural, electrical, and plumbing documentation. We also assist with DOT compliance, permits, and state-specific requirements to minimize administrative burdens.

Step 4. Fabrication and Integration

Vehicles are constructed in our controlled shop environment. Electrical harnesses, plumbing runs, and medical gas installations are integrated with interior finishes designed for cleanability and long-term durability.

Step 5. Commissioning and Handoff

Before delivery, we conduct system testing, power and temperature audits, and staff training. Every vehicle is accompanied by detailed documentation and operational guides.

Step 6. Long-Term Support

We provide scheduled maintenance plans, spare parts kits, and remote technical support, ensuring your mobile clinic remains mission-ready for years to come.

Enjoy Advanced Clinical Capabilities & Features for Better Care

Our mobile health vehicles are engineered to deliver clinical capabilities that match stationary facilities, without compromising mobility or convenience.

Let’s explore the key features that allow our mobile health vehicles to operate like fully equipped stationary clinics on the move:

Power and Climate

Every vehicle is equipped with redundant power systems, climate control, and medical-grade HVAC to keep your staff and patients comfortable. HEPA filtration and optional negative-pressure systems add an extra layer of safety for high-risk scenarios.

Cold Chain and Specimen Handling

Protecting samples and vaccines is simple with monitored refrigeration, digital logging, and secure storage compartments. Built-in workflows reduce contamination risk and keep operations running smoothly in any setting.

Communications and IT

Stay connected with bonded cellular networks, wired Ethernet, and optional satellite internet for rural deployments. Integrated encryption and HIPAA-compliant configurations keep patient data secure on every stop.

Water and Waste

Self-contained water systems, on-board heaters, and convenient pump-out connections make it easy to set up anywhere. Built to meet local regulations, these systems keep your clinic running cleanly and efficiently.

Accessibility and Safety Specs

With ADA-compliant ramps, wide doors, and carefully designed layouts, patients can move through the vehicle with ease. Fire detection, emergency exits, and GFCI-protected circuits add safety and peace of mind for staff and visitors.
