Abstract: A hotel-based clinic to serve Project RoomKey residents is a model for meeting the health care needs of an unhoused population. The purpose of this paper is to describe the health services provided by students and licensed clinicians at a hotel that was designed to allow unhoused community residents to shelter in place during the early stages of the Covid pandemic (May 1-June 30, 2020). Documents developed for the project may be useful to others who are setting up similar services for unhoused residents in their own communities.<br /> (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc.
