The Board of Lake County Commissioners has partnered with the Lake County General Health District to purchase a mobile medical unit for use throughout Lake County.   The mobile medical unit will be used to help bring the COVID-19 vaccine to all areas of Lake County and ensure that all Lake County citizens have the opportunity to receive the COVID-19 vaccination.  

The mobile medical unit is accessible for individuals with physical disabilities, and will allow the Lake County General Health District to better serve the whole community, including persons with disabilities and persons who are homebound. 

“Through continued partnerships, throughout the county, the Board of Lake County Commissioners are able to provide Lake County citizens the best services possible,” said Lake County Commissioner President John Hamercheck.

“The partnership between the Lake County General Health District and Board of Lake County Commissioners to purchase the mobile medical unit allows the Health District to bring the COVID-19 vaccine to those in areas of need and ensure the Health District has the tools necessary to combat this unprecedented disease.  The Health District is very grateful to have partners like the Board of Lake County Commissioners and looks forward to continued partnerships and providing the excellent level of care that the citizens of Lake County deserve,” said Ron Graham, health commissioner.
