Mobile Services Program

Covenant’s Mobile Services program includes three vehicles: a mammography unit and two dental vans serving Texas.

The mobile mammography units provide mammography screenings within a 100-mile radius of Lubbock, for women age 40 and older. The units are staffed by specially trained, American Registry of Radiologic Technologists®-registered female X-ray technologists, and results are interpreted by board-certified radiologists. Financial arrangements can be made for women who cannot afford the established fees.

Mobile dental vans provide dental services for the rural, adult, indigent population within a 100-mile radius of Lubbock. The units are staffed by licensed dentists and experienced dental assistants. The mobile dental units and staffs visit nursing homes and rehabilitation facilities to provide dental care for housebound patients as well. Professional services include fillings, extractions and other basic dental procedures. Clients must meet financial eligibility criteria.
