A note from the Chief Executive Officer

What does health care's future look like, both in Miami-Dade County and across the country? Maybe the more important question is what should health care's future 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. Instead, this kind of thinking drives us to provide better care to everyone who walks through our doors.

That means changing the way we think about population health by providing more all-inclusive 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 teams that provide cutting-edge care... offering hope for critically ill patients who've 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 emergency rooms at Jackson Memorial Hospital.

And it means understanding how our patients live in order to understand their full wellness journey. More than ever before, we're aligning with the best local organizations and leveraging community health worker models to be true partners in meeting our patients where they're at.

From the day I arrived at Jackson 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've elevated their commitment to our 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.

Carlos A. Migoya Chief Executive Officer Jackson Health System

Doctors perform first-ever in-utero embolization in Florida at Holtz Children's Hospital

Thirty five weeks into her pregnancy, Lainey Ramos Arango's world changed drastically. Doctors said an ultrasound indicated a potential blood vessel anomaly in her baby's brain. Further testing confirmed a rare vein of Galen malformation. Rodrigo Ruano, MD, PhD, director of the UHealth Jackson Fetal Care Center and division chief of UHealth Jackson Maternal-Fetal Medicine, assembled a multi-disciplinary team to brainstorm the best option for Arango and her baby, including colleague and renowned expert on the condition, Robert M. Starke, MD, co-director of endovascular neurosurgery at Jackson Memorial Hospital, and a UHealth - University of Miami Health System neurosurgeon and neuroradiologist. Dr. Ruano and the team determined an in-utero intervention to correct the malformation offered the best prognosis. The procedure had only been performed a handful of times around the world, and only once before by Dr. Ruano. Lucas Hormachea was born three weeks later via C-section and doctors say his heart function is normal. Drs. Ruano and Starke were joined by a multidisciplinary group of subspecialists that included Holtz Children's Hospital's neonatal team, pediatric anaesthesiologists, pediatric cardiologists, and pediatric radiologists for the groundbreaking surgery.
