them going to the clinic? >> there are lots of people who can't manage being inside, even for small amounts of time, who their mental illness is. so intense that they're too paranoid to come in. they're too weak or too ill to come in. this is a patient i've known for a long time. we're drying some blood and talking about some medications. we restarted doctor catherine taylor treats anyone willing to be cared for. >> it takes trust out. >> how many days do you think in a week have you taken it? >> this type of homeless health care is an effective way to keep them from ending up in the emergency room after her weekly checkup, juliana amos spoke to us about being unhoused for the past five years. i assume that you don't interact with many people. what does it mean to you for doctors to come to you? >> um, it means a lot because i don't like going on the busses.
