Health
The SanoVan Health Caravan is the mobile medical service that makes healthcare more accessible for all Romanians. Together, we aim to change Romanians' perspectives on their health and facilitate access to medical care where time and location can become obstacles in seeking regular medical check-ups.
Access to medical services can be difficult due to the proximity of clinics and the availability of specialist doctors, but also by a lack of preventive healthcare spirit, as shown by national and international medical reports.
Through #RomaniaForward, we bring medical services directly to the communities that need them the most, removing time and distance barriers. We fuel positive change through accessible healthcare and active prevention..
The SanoVan Health Caravan
The SanoVan Health Caravan, sustained by OSCAR Downstream, is a crucial project that delivers medical prevention and education services directly to isolated communities in the Center and Western part of the country. The project mobilizes resources to provide essential health screenings and check-ups to those most in need of these services.
