ITV Wales spent the morning with Tracy as she did her rounds on the streets of Bridgend.
It is the first initiative of its kind to help with some of the complex medical needs those sleeping rough may have.
"They need bloods, they need health checks, but they're not having them and they're not going into GPs to have them, so by us going out and doing what we do on the streets we're able to have a good working relationship with GP services so we're able to get their health needs met. Back at the Wallich charity's base, ITV Wales spoke to a couple who'd been helped by Tracy into temporary accommodation.The nurse outreach is a a new and innovative service."Without Tracy, I wouldn't have had appointments with midwives, had a scan," the women told ITV Wales."We don't have a phone, and it has all got to be done over the phone, so we saw Tracy and she got me an appointment that very day.
A spokesperson said: “The initiative is very much a partnership service, with the Health Outreach Team working in close collaboration with the council and other partners, including the Wallich.
