Care Harbor Information

Care Harbor provides free medical, dental and vision care to the uninsured, underinsured and underserved in our communities. For those who live without access to the care they need, our clinic events are a destination for help and hope. Care Harbor is also a gateway. Patients who have conditions needing follow-up are connected to medical homes for continuing care after the clinic ends. And all those who come to Care Harbor receive prevention and self-care resources that empower them to lead healthier lives. We are working to bring lasting change to the individuals and communities we serve. Care Harbor is transforming free clinic events from episodic to sustainable care. In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare environment, we are meeting the challenge with innovations that can help our most vulnerable populations live healthy, productive lives. Care Harbor converts arenas and other large venues into working clinics treating thousands of people in the space of a few days. Our events may have 100 dental chairs, 20 vision lanes, 40 primary care and subspecialty exam rooms, a women’s health section, dispensary, and many other resources. We offer everything from dental fillings, extractions and cleanings to eye exams and prescription glasses, from medical evaluations and procedures to immunizations and screenings. Care Harbor is a temporary clinic but we do not provide temporary care. We connect patients with conditions that require further treatment or evaluation to local clinics and practices that can provide ongoing primary and specialty care. Representatives from these facilities are on site at Care Harbor to make follow-up appointments before patients leave the event.
