Providing nearby health services rates highly among residents.

With a trend toward “healthy lifestyles” for apartment residents, Beacon Hills Apartments added an onsite mobile medical service bus. Mobile medical service is a new concept in preventative and urgent care medicine, offering onsite economical medical exposure to apartment owners as an added perk to their employee benefit bundle and their resident amenity package.

This is not an emergency service, but rather a doctor’s office where medical services are highly individualized, and the focus is the treatment for non-life-threatening injuries and illnesses while medically supporting paths to current concepts in healthy lifestyles.

Beacon Hill Apartments, a 624-unit luxury apartment community in Oakland County, Mich., and Anlam Mobile MD, based in Woodhaven, Mich., partnered to offer a unique service to Beacon Hills’ employees and residents. This perk cost little to implement and saved time and money for both employees of the property and its residents, as well as drew in the surrounding community onto the Beacon Hill property.

Anlam Mobile MD focuses on health and wellness (services that encourage and promote preventative health care such as vaccinations, regular checkup, allergies and skin concerns); urgent care (medical care for illnesses or injuries that require attention, but aren’t life threatening); and occupational medicine (work-related injuries and illnesses that happen at work and are usually impacted by workers’ compensation).

These services are supported by the latest technology designed for immediate results and information via a mobile doctor’s office. The medical staff is fully licensed, certified and multi-lingual and they also provide logistics and co-marketing opportunities for each apartment community they visit.

Sign-ups are encouraged for the appointed date, but walk-ins are welcomed. The Anlam Mobile MD bus parks in a designated spot on the property and opens its doors to pre-registered employees or residents for individual wellness reviews, illness and injury treatment, physicals and flu shots. Appointments are made online per scheduled visit or through the management office.

The introduction of the Anlam Mobile MD bus to this community was successful and enlightening.

“Supporting the wellness of our employees and residents is a priority for us; Beacon is most successful when our employees and residents are at their best,” Monica Tucker, Regional Sales Manager, Beacon says.
