We are proud of our own Stephanie Epstein, a board-certified music therapist at Holtz Children's Hospital. Stephanie had the distinct honor of representing Jackson Health System before 500+ employees of Vertical Bridge as they came together to assemble Cheeriodicals | Team Building That Matters care kits for our patients. Standing in front of a room that size and speaking to the heart of what we do every day takes confidence, passion, and purpose, and Stephanie brought all of it. This is what it looks like when our team shows up beyond the hospital walls.

Another successful EMS Lunch & Learn at Jackson North Medical Center! We were honored to welcome several Miami-Dade Fire Rescue units for an engaging educational session focused on improving maternal and neonatal care. Today’s discussion covered the neonatal period (the first 30 days of life), the Blue Bracelet Initiative, and the recognition and management of preeclampsia, critical topics that help strengthen collaboration and enhance patient care in our community. A special thank you to Dr. Sara Cortes and Dr. Taalibah Ahmed for sharing their expertise and leading such an informative and impactful session. We truly appreciate your dedication to educating our EMS partners and strengthening the continuum of care. #EMS #MiamiDadeFireRescue #CommunityPartnership #MedicalEducation #MaternalHealth #NeonatalCare #Preeclampsia #HealthcareLeadership
