Community Wellness Services

Community Wellness Van

TidalHealth's Community Wellness Van is a mobile medical unit that provides community-based health screenings. Services may include blood pressure, diabetes assessment, referrals and links to primary care, cancer screenings, seasonal flu shots and more. The van visits underserved communities throughout the Lower Eastern Shore and Sussex County, Del., and community events.

TidalHealth Mobile Mammography

By taking our services on the road, we’re removing obstacles and improving access to critical preventive care — because where you live should never determine whether you get the care you need. TidalHealth Mobile Mammography serves communities across Delmarva.

SWIFT Program

TidalHealth and the Salisbury Fire Department work together through the Salisbury-Wicomico Integrated FirstCare Team (SWIFT) program to give you support and tools to manage your health.

The team works with you in your home to determine your healthcare needs and connect you with the right services. Participation in this program is voluntary and offered only to Wicomico County residents. The home visits are free to participants.

SWIFT includes a nurse practitioner, community paramedic, registered nurse, social worker, community health worker and other health professionals working together to connect people to the appropriate services.

You may be referred to the SWIFT by the 911 call center, the emergency department or a care provider. A member of our team will contact you to schedule a home visit.

The visit may include:

• Physical exam (checkup)
• Medication review
• Home safety check
• Social needs survey
• Health education
• Discussing goals and ways you would like to improve your health

To learn more, contact David Phippin, SWIFT coordinator, at 410-548-3120.

About the Maryland Community Health Resources Commission

The Maryland Community Health Resources Commission (CHRC) was created by the Maryland General Assembly in 2005 to expand access to health care services in underserved communities, support programs that serve low-income and vulnerable populations, and strengthen the capacity of Maryland’s network of safety net providers across the state through its grant making authority. Since its inception, the CHRC has awarded 866 grants, totaling $291.7 million, supporting programs in every jurisdiction of the State. These programs have collectively served more than 620,000 Marylanders and the grants awarded by the CHRC have enabled grantees to leverage $44.7 million in additional federal, and private/non-profit resources. 

The Community Outreach Request allows organizations and community groups to connect with TidalHealth for health education, resources, and support. By submitting a request, you can partner with our team to bring meaningful programs, services, or wellness initiatives to your event or audience.
