Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Accessibility refers to the ability of clients to access needed health care services. While all of the options listed lead to opportunities for achieving better health outcomes, either directly or indirectly, only a mobile health clinic can potentially improve accessibility to health care. Neighbourhood clinics, mobile vAnswer, and home visits can bring health care to people unable to access health care units. Coordinating health care services from a central location often improves client compliance because it reduces the stress of getting to multiple places.
