Mobile Health units have been put into service thanks to a partnership with Fayetteville State University (FSU) School of Nursing and Truist Mobile Health.

“Today’s launch of the Modified Mobile Health Unit reminds us that no person in Cumberland County should be without medical attention because of finances or proximity,” said FSU Chancellor Darrell T. Allison said. 

An affordable solution to quality health care is now available through the Modified Mobile Health Units that will allow FSU students to simultaneously get hands-on experience. 

“This is another example of how FSU has triumphed in the time of a global pandemic,” Allison said. “We celebrate this momentous occasion to further prove that we are doing what we said we would by serving the citizens of Cumberland County and this state. I could not be happier that we will have the ability to witness and celebrate the introduction of this mobile medical clinic.”

“At Truist, our purpose is to inspire and build better lives and communities,” said Phil Marion, Eastern North Carolina regional president for Truist, on behalf of Truist Foundation.

Marion said FSU and Truist continue to partner in successful endeavors with the commonality of enhanced community service.  

The mobile medical clinics' slogan “Bringing Care to Community” is painted on the side of each mobile clinic as a symbol of FSU’s example and service, according to the FSU statement.
