title: Mobile interprofessional wellness care of rural older adults.
abstract: This article describes the outcomes of an innovative program developed to deliver mobile health and wellness services to older adults residing in rural Idaho. The Senior HealthMobile project had been implemented based on a framework of interprofessional practice, with faculty and students from varied health professions providing wellness care to rural older adults. Students had participated in the community-based experience to improve access to interdisciplinary wellness care and enhance existing services. Outcomes are shared as they relate to the experience of the students over the initial 6-year implementation of the project, with future perspectives and opportunities also presented.
