When employees are spread across busy sites, shifts or remote locations, arranging off-site occupational health appointments can create unnecessary travel, downtime and scheduling pressure.
A mobile medical unit brings occupational health services directly to your workplace, making it easier for employees to attend without travelling, taking extended time away from their role or disrupting operational schedules. It is a practical, efficient option for businesses with multiple sites, large workforces or teams in hard-to-reach locations, allowing health surveillance, medicals, vaccinations and wellbeing checks to be delivered on-site in a professional, confidential environment. By reducing downtime and improving appointment attendance, a mobile unit helps employers stay on top of compliance requirements while keeping their people supported and their business moving.
A fleet of 50+ mobile medical units bringing occupational health to workplaces across the UK.
On-site appointments planned around your locations, shifts and operational priorities.
Relevant results and practical recommendations to help your teams take the next step.
Where clinically appropriate, relevant outcomes can be issued on the day of your appointment.
Mobile medical units can support a wide range of occupational health services where the assessment, clinical requirements and site arrangements are suitable.
Typical services may include:
Health surveillance, including audiometry, spirometry, vision screening, skin checks and HAVS assessments.
Safety-critical and role-specific medical assessments.
Driver, plant-operator and forklift-truck medicals where appropriate.
Drug and alcohol testing as part of an agreed workplace substance-misuse programme.
Selected pre-placement, periodic and fitness-for-work medicals.
Biological-monitoring sample collection, where appropriate.
Bringing multiple suitable services together into one planned visit can reduce the need for separate appointments at different locations.
A Mobile Medical Unit, or MMU, is a purpose-built clinical vehicle that allows suitable occupational-health assessments to be delivered at or close to your workplace.
Instead of asking employees to travel to an external clinic—or trying to deliver assessments in an unsuitable meeting room—your workforce attends appointments in a private, self-contained clinical environment.
This can be particularly valuable for operational, industrial, field-based, shift-working and multi-site teams, where off-site appointments create avoidable travel, downtime and scheduling pressure.
We understand that every site has different access arrangements, workforce patterns and practical constraints. Our role is to make the clinic work around your operations, rather than expecting your teams to adapt to a fixed process.
Understand your workforce and sites – We begin by looking at your locations, employee numbers, services required, workplace risks, shift patterns and site constraints. This helps establish whether an MMU is the right option, how many days may be required and where mobile delivery adds the most value.
Plan routes and clinic schedules – For multi-site programmes, we plan routes and clinic schedules to align with your operational priorities. This may include phased activity across regions, repeat visits, seasonal planning or catch-up clinics for employees who could not attend initial appointments.
Prepare site access and parking – Before delivery, we agree suitable parking, access, site induction, utilities where needed, emergency arrangements and employee-flow plans. This helps ensure the clinic is safe, accessible and ready to operate with minimal disruption.
Coordinate employee appointments – We work with your HR, health and safety and operational teams to help schedule appointments, share practical information and make sure employees know when and where to attend.
Mobile medical units are one part of Clarity’s wider nationwide delivery model. We use the right delivery route for each requirement, rather than assuming mobile delivery is always the answer.
Depending on your needs, this may include:
Mobile medical units for high-volume, on-site health surveillance and suitable medical programmes.
On-site clinics where you have appropriate rooms and recurring needs.
Local clinic appointments for individual, low-volume or dispersed-workforce assessments.
Telephone and video consultations for management referrals, follow-up discussions and clinically appropriate case-management support.
This joined-up approach helps you provide accessible occupational health support for employees across sites, roles and working patterns.
A one-off clinic can be useful when you need to complete a defined programme of health surveillance, medicals or assessments within a planned timeframe.
If employees have missed appointments, a targeted mobile clinic can help bring health-surveillance or medical programmes back on track without requiring widespread travel to external clinics.
For larger organisations, mobile units can form part of an ongoing annual or periodic programme. This may include planned site visits for surveillance, medicals, vaccinations or other agreed services.
Where suitable, different services can be combined during the same visit. For example, employees may complete relevant health-surveillance assessments alongside role-specific medicals, reducing the need for separate appointments and repeated time away from work.
Whether you need health surveillance across multiple sites, role-specific medicals for an operational workforce or a more practical way to deliver occupational health at scale, Clarity can help.
Tell us about your workforce, sites, services and operational requirements. We will guide you through the options and help create a mobile-clinic programme that supports your people and fits around the way your organisation works.
Mobile medical units can deliver a range of suitable occupational health services, including health surveillance such as audiometry, HAVS assessments, spirometry, vision screening and skin checks; selected safety-critical, role-specific and fitness-for-work medicals; vaccination clinics; drug and alcohol testing; and biological-monitoring sample collection where appropriate.
The exact service mix depends on clinical requirements, equipment, staffing, site arrangements and any relevant regulatory standard.
MMUs can deliver high‑volume health surveillance (including audiometry, HAVS, spirometry, vision and skin checks), safety‑critical medicals, pre‑employment and fitness‑for‑work medicals, night worker assessments, drug and alcohol testing, forklift driver medicals, isocyanate testing and certain statutory medicals—depending on your requirements.
MMUs are often most useful for higher-volume programmes, multi-site organisations, shift-based teams, remote or industrial locations, and situations where employee travel to external clinics would cause significant downtime or disruption.
Clarity agrees the programme, dates, appointment schedule and site arrangements with you. The unit is positioned in a suitable area, employees attend planned appointments during the visit, and agreed outcomes and programme reporting are provided afterwards.
Mobile units can reduce employee travel, minimise time away from work, improve appointment access and make it easier to coordinate high-volume activity. They can also allow several suitable services to be delivered in one planned visit.
Requirements depend on the unit, service and location, but typically include suitable parking and access, sufficient space for safe operation, site induction arrangements and practical employee access. We will confirm requirements during planning.
Clarity’s mobile medical units provide nationwide coverage across the UK. We can support a wide range of workplaces, including construction sites, depots, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, utilities locations, offices and operational sites.
Some statutory or regulated medicals may be deliverable in a mobile setting, but this depends on the relevant assessment, clinical requirements, staffing and regulatory conditions. Where HSE-appointed-doctor involvement or specialist facilities are required, we will advise on the most appropriate delivery route.
