Emergency Response & How To Get Involved
Over the last 18 months, MHA has been working to increase our response, coordination, and collaborative capacity through memberships in the Mendocino County VOAD (Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster), the Sonoma County COAD (Community Organizations Active in Disaster) and Hubs & Routes, which is a Mendocino County grassroots project (for more on Hubs & Routes, see the article below). Each membership helps to pull in regional resources to assist our community during turbulent times. A component of our work with the Sonoma County COAD includes the development of a Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP), which has helped us identify gaps in staffing, resources, community-wide communication, and response capacity through tabletop exercises that require real-time responses to hypothetical emergencies and disasters. While there are a handful of internal gaps identified, such as communication and connectivity infrastructure, there are also gaps that the community can help close. Those gaps include the development of a volunteer response team; the expansion of our list of vulnerable community members who need to be checked on during disasters/emergencies; and an expanded list of individuals who rely on electricity for life-sustaining medical equipment. To add your name to one or more of these lists, click on the appropriate link below.

THE MOBILE CLINIC HAS ARRIVED!
The Mendonoma Health Alliance Mobile Clinic was a huge team effort on behalf of our whole team at Mendonoma Health Alliance, along with support from Santa Rosa Memorial, private donors, the Arlene and Michael Rosen Foundation, and huge planning efforts on behalf of Coast Life Support District. So many other individuals and agencies have contributed to our success but we still have some work to do. We will keep the community updated on launch date and when we are enrolling patients.
The Mobile Clinic will be providing primary health care on the vehicle and will be able to provide referrals to specialists, blood draws for lab work, telemedicine, health education, harm reduction services, and access to free health management equipment (blood pressure cuffs, scales, glucometers, etc.). In addition to a medical provider and medical assistant, it will be staffed with a community health worker who will help coordinate the care for every patient to fill in gaps with resources. We will be providing services to Manchester and Timber Cove, two days in each community per week. If the demand is high, we will eventually expand to more days as the demand for services ramps up.
