CAC Medical Centers

Community Partners

At CAC-Florida Medical Centers, we have leveraged the many years of service and interaction with our adult patient population to gauge, research and understand their unique needs and concerns. We have taken this valuable feedback and have worked within our community to identify individuals, organizations and institutions that are in a unique position to assist and educate our senior population about issues that are important to know and be prepared for.

Alliance for Aging, Inc.

Partnering with the Alliance for Aging has provided the seniors of Miami-Dade County with informational lectures regarding healthy living, for example many of our physicians conduct educational seminars about Diabetes, Alzheimer, Fall Prevention just to name a few.

American Red Cross

Partnering with the Red Cross has provided our seniors with vital information in preparing for Hurricanes in our area as well as defining specific plans and procedures to follow in case of an evacuation.

The Red Cross partner program has also brought our senior valuable information with regards to safety from fires at home due to kitchen appliances left unattended, smoking at home, placing candles in close proximity to clothing.

University of Miami Miller School of Medicine

Partnering with UM has assisted us in focusing on the safety of our seniors in street crossing throughout our traffic congested, and busy intersections in Miami-Dade county. The Little Havana CAC-Florida Medical Center is located in the number one intersection of Miami-Dade County with Pedestrian casualties.

School of Nursing and Health Studies/University of Miami

Thanks to a new partnership with the University of Miami School of Nursing and Health Studies, UM nursing students have a chance to experience the variety and career opportunities of community nursing firsthand at CAC's Medical Centers. The University of Miami is known for its quality, so this partnership demonstrates the nursing school's confidence in CAC's patient care.
