Mass General’s CareZone Treats Opioid Use Disorder Where It Lives
Underscoring a commitment to make health care accessible to all populations, the Kraft Center for Community Health at Massachusetts General Hospital recently launched CareZone—a mobile clinic aimed at engaging and treating those struggling with opioid use disorder and related health issues.
Bringing together collaborators from the GE Foundation, Ford Motor Company, Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program (BHCHP), and the Boston Public Health Commission’s harm reduction and needle exchange site, AHOPE, CareZone delivers addiction treatment services to the vulnerable members of the population who need them most but often have the greatest difficulty accessing them.
