2024 Report to the Community

HEALTH SYSTEM

Miracles made daily.

A note from the President and Chief Executive Officer

What does the future of health care look like in our community, particularly as we move past the COVID-19 pandemic? Maybe the more important question: what should the future of health care look like?

These are the questions we ask at Jackson Health System, whether at the bedside or in the boardroom. We don't pretend to have all the answers-rather, we believe this kind of thinking drives us to provide better care for individual patients and all of Miami-Dade County.

"We are aligning with the best local non-profit organizations and leveraging community health worker models to be true partners in compassionately and efficiently meeting our patients where they work and live."

That means changing the way we think about population health by providing more holistic and individualized programs that help our neighbors prevent illness instead of waiting to treat it.

That means recruiting and retaining the best caregivers in the world to lead clinical teams that provide cutting-edge care... providing hope for critically ill patients who have been turned away from other hospitals.

That means building next-generation facilities to meet tomorrow's needs, like constructing one of the nation's largest adult and pediatric emergency rooms at Jackson Memorial Hospital and Holtz Children's Hospital.

And it means understanding the ways social determinants of health impact the full picture of wellness. More than ever before, we are aligning with the best local non-profit organizations and leveraging community health worker models to be true partners in compassionately and efficiently meeting our patients where they work and live.

From the day I arrived as Jackson's CEO in 2011, I knew our world-class team of nurses, therapists, doctors, techs, and other healthcare professionals deserved programs and facilities worthy of their excellence. Time and again, they have elevated their commitment to their patients through Jackson's CARE values: compassion, accountability, respect, and expertise. This report to the community celebrates their accomplishments and is a tribute to their love of making miracles daily.

Maternal-fetal medicine team delivers excellent outcomes

Top clinical support from pre-birth interventions to delivery

When little Wesley was born at The Women's Hospital at Jackson Memorial, he had a team of 13 specialists and three doctors standing by, ready to intervene at the slightest complication. Diagnosed with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia, as well as a piece of abnormal lung tissue, Wesley would need surgery immediately after birth.

Support every step of the way

The close proximity of high-risk pregnancy care to the largest neonatal intensive care unit in Florida is one of the many reasons the team is a community leader in perinatal medicine. Alfonso Perez, MD, a neonatal surgeon at Holtz Children's, who operated on Wesley, says the readily available multidisciplinary collaboration is a game-changer.

"This level of care and expertise only exists at a place like Holtz Children's because we have so many specialists always at the ready," Dr. Perez said.

Our team is comprised of board-certified experts who work hand in hand with a multidisciplinary group of pediatric specialists, including geneticists, neonatologists, surgeons, neurosurgeons, nephrologists, urologists, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, cardiac surgeons, obstetricians, nurses, and social workers.

Wesley's doctor, Rodrigo Ruano, MD, PhD, director of the UHealth Jackson Fetal Care Center and division chief of UHealth Jackson Maternal-Fetal Medicine, leads the only academic-based fetal program in South Florida, an impressive multidisciplinary group of specialists delivering high-risk pregnancy care, fetal surgery and interventions, and care for premature or high-risk newborns in one location.

Rehabilitation puts young patient on track to normalcy

Eleven-year-old Mikey is happy to be running again. He is not as fast as he used to be, but considering he woke up from emergency brain surgery unable to speak or walk, he'll take it.

Mikey suffered from a stroke, the result of a ruptured arteriovenous malformation (AVM) - often described as a "tangle of blood vessels." The UHealth Jackson team of neurosurgeons has contributed extensively to international medical literature on cerebral and spinal AVMs. The team is at the forefront of surgical treatments for cerebrovascular disorders, as well as hard-to-treat tumors at the base of the skull in children and adults.

Mikey's recovery also includes intensive rehabilitation at the Christine E. Lynn Rehabilitation Center for The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis at UHealth/Jackson Memorial.
