How can you bring healthcare directly to those who need it most? Jordana Latozas, founder of the Recovery Mobile Clinic, has the answer. In this engaging episode, Ellen Stewart, the Pushy Broad from the Bronx, chats with Jordana about her innovative approach to addiction treatment. Imagine a clinic on wheels, rolling into neighbourhoods and offering crucial medical and social services right at your doorstep.
Jordana shares how her husband's RV business sparked the idea, transforming these vehicles into mobile clinics that operate much like a local doctor's office. With a mission to tackle the transportation barriers that prevent many from accessing care, Jordana's clinic is making waves in Southeast Michigan. Jordana talks about the challenges and triumphs of launching during the pandemic, and how her team navigates the stigma surrounding addiction.
The clinic's model is simple yet effective: provide non-addictive treatments like naltrexone and offer comprehensive support, from medical exams to case management. With a personal connection to addiction through her family, Jordana is passionate about empowering nurse practitioners to replicate her model across the US. This episode isn't just about mobile clinics; it's about changing lives and breaking down barriers. You'll hear touching stories of recovery and resilience, proving that with the right support, anyone can overcome their struggles.
Whether you're in healthcare or simply interested in community-driven solutions, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on tackling addiction head-on. Ready to rethink how we deliver care? Tune in and see how a little innovation can make a huge difference.
