On Fridays, we wear pink.

Our HCA Florida University Hospital colleagues came together in the shape of a pink ribbon to support breast cancer awareness and remind our community that screening matters.

We offer comprehensive breast health services, including screening, diagnosis, surgery and recovery support. Our services include 3D mammography, breast ultrasound and breast MRI. We are also one of the few facilities in our area offering contrast-enhanced mammography, an advanced imaging option that can help get a clearer look when evaluating breast abnormalities.

Your health matters. Your screening matters. Our team is here to help you take the next step.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a good time to learn more about your personal risk.

Our team recently attended the BRCAStrong Education that Empowers Summit focused on hereditary cancer education, advocacy and community support. The experience brought together doctors, advocates and community members for important conversations about hereditary cancer risk and the resources available to help people feel supported.

Did you know your genes can play a role in your breast cancer risk? Most breast cancers are not inherited, but certain inherited gene changes — including BRCA1 and BRCA2 — can raise your risk.

Knowing your personal and family health history can help you better understand your risk and make informed decisions about screening, risk reduction and whether genetic testing or genetic counseling may be right for you.

Talk with your doctor about your breast cancer risk, or schedule an appointment with a genetic counselor: https://bit.ly/4zcpwpO

For many people with blood cancer or other serious blood disorders, a blood stem cell or bone marrow transplant can offer hope — and it often starts with a donor.

According to the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration, most patients who need a transplant don’t have a fully matched donor in their family and rely on NMDP (formerly Be The Match) to help find one. NMDP ℠ is a global nonprofit leader in cell therapy that helps save the lives of patients with blood cancers and disorders.

As part of HCA Healthcare, we're proud to support this life-saving work through the Sarah Cannon Transplant and Cellular Therapy Network — one of the nation's leading providers of unrelated bone marrow donor transplants in the U.S. Each year, this extensive network helps connect tens of thousands of patients with the care they need.

You could be someone’s match. Learn more and join the registry at https://bit.ly/4ymUxXY.

After seeking care, Pala learned she had high-grade myelodysplastic syndrome, a condition that can progress to an aggressive blood cancer called acute leukemia. Her search for treatment options brought her to the Sarah Cannon Transplant and Cellular Therapy Program at HCA Florida North Florida Hospital, where she met Dr. Zeina Al-Mansour and team.

“I am so grateful that I was able to find this place and this team, because they saved my life,” Pala said. “They gave me a future. I’ll be able to see my grandchildren grow up. I’ll be able to see them graduate. I am just so grateful.”

During Blood Cancer Awareness Month, Pala’s story reflects the specialized expertise and advanced treatment options available through our transplant and cellular therapy team. Our colleagues are committed to providing high-quality, patient-centered care with purpose and integrity.

💓 Does your heart ever feel like it’s pounding, racing, fluttering or skipping a beat? These sensations can be signs of heart palpitations.

Heart palpitations are common, but some may need medical attention. Seek medical care if palpitations keep coming back or occur with symptoms of chest pain, fainting, severe dizziness or shortness of breath.

Triggers can be different for everyone. Stress, caffeine, poor sleep, dehydration, certain medications and other factors may play a role.

Know what heart palpitations can feel like, what may contribute to them and when to seek care for a racing heart or skipped heartbeat: https://bit.ly/4htFjt3.

📍Concerned about your heart rhythm or palpitations that keep coming back? For nonemergency concerns, talk with your doctor or find care near you: https://bit.ly/4hduqgg.

This National Rehabilitation Awareness Week, we’re celebrating the determination of patients— like Cierra Anderson — and the care teams who help make meaningful progress possible.

After experiencing an unexpected and severe stroke at just 25-years old, Cierra began her recovery journey by undergoing a month of intensive rehabilitation at HCA Florida G*inesville Hospital Inpatient Rehabilitation. The center, which opened to the community in May 2026, provides specialized inpatient rehabilitation to support patients working to regain function and independence after serious illness or injury.

With the support of her rehabilitation care team — and plenty of determination — Cierra made significant progress. Today, she is walking and talking again. She recently marked another milestone by ringing the Champion’s Bell and graduating from the rehabilitation program.

During National Rehabilitation Awareness Week, we celebrate Cierra’s progress and the dedicated rehabilitation colleagues who help patients work toward their individual recovery goals every day.

During Advanced Practice Provider (APP) Week, HCA Florida Healthcare recognizes our APPs and the important role they play across the HCA Healthcare network. From listening and assessing symptoms to helping guide treatment and follow-up care, APPs are there for patients every step of the way.

As highly trained clinicians with advanced degrees, APPs bring deep expertise to patient care. At HCA Healthcare, we’re committed to advancing that expertise by investing more than $50 million in education and professional development annually — because supporting our colleagues means supporting better outcomes for our patients.

To all our APPs, thank you for the compassionate care you provide every day.

During Environmental Services (EVS) Week, we’re proud to recognize team members like Kwame Avery, who demonstrate how every role can be an opportunity to lead, grow and contribute to our mission. 💙

As a newly promoted EVS supervisor at 🏥 HCA Florida Memorial Hospital, Kwame helps create a clean, safe environment for patients, visitors and colleagues while bringing a passion for empowering others to his work each day.

“My favorite part of my role is being a leader who has the ability to inspire, encourage and educate,” Kwame says. “What I appreciate about working for HCA Florida Healthcare is that it gives me the opportunity for continuous professional development and a steady, day-by-day approach to learning. It is an excellent foundation for a fulfilling career.”

That drive to inspire others extends beyond the hospital. Outside of work, Kwame enjoys writing inspirational books and mentoring children through his church.

After three and a half years with HCA Healthcare, Kwame continues to grow his career while making a difference for those around him — showing how EVS can be a place to serve others, develop as a leader and build a meaningful career.

We climb to remember.

Today, 25 years after Sept. 11, 2001, our colleagues joined local fire rescue teams for the second annual Rock the Climb 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at the iconic Guitar Hotel at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino - Hollywood, FL. HCA Florida Healthcare was proud to sponsor this meaningful event, hosted by the Firefighters Benevolent of Davie.

Each year, climbers ascend 110 stories — the height of the Twin Towers — in remembrance of those who gave everything.

We are proud to stand alongside our first-responder partners as we honor the courage, sacrifice and service of Sept. 11.

Supporting healthier communities starts long before someone walks through our doors.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the Broward Education Foundation's School Supply Drive. Together, our colleagues collected more than 700 school supply items to help students at under-resourced Title I schools across Broward County begin the school year with the tools they need to learn and succeed.

We are proud to support the Broward Education Foundation and invest in the well-being of the communities we serve. Every backpack, notebook and pencil represents an opportunity to help students start the school year with confidence.

Joint pain can make simple things — gardening, bending, kneeling — feel way harder than they should.

If you’re experiencing ongoing pain, stiffness, swelling or limited movement in your knees, hips, shoulders or hands, it might be time to check in with a doctor. Some issues improve with treatment, and others may need a closer look.

You don’t have to just push through it. Our orthopedic teams provide high‑quality, patient‑centered care for bones, joints and muscles to help you move more comfortably and confidently.
