When you walk through our doors, you’re not just a patient.

You’re family.

For nurse Jessica, who has cared for patients here for 18 years, that family feeling runs deep. Now, she gets to see her son Davonte carrying on that tradition as a Patient Care Technician. Recently, Davonte was honored with the Daffodil Award for going above and beyond in caring for patients.

Jessica shared:

“I get to see a whole different side of him here caring for patients every day and being recognized for it. This hospital truly feels like family, and watching Davonte be part of that culture is incredible. It’s a true reflection of how we care like family.”

That’s the difference you’ll experience at HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital. Compassionate care from a team that treats every patient like one of our own.

At HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital, patients can count on compassionate, skilled emergency care every day. The same dedication our team carries with them around the world.

Recently, ER nurses Connor, Carmen, Danielle, and Patricia traveled to Kenya on a medical mission trip, where they cared for patients and supported local healthcare providers. Their commitment to healing extends far beyond our walls, but it’s the very same compassion and expertise they bring back to our community here at home.

We’re proud to have these remarkable nurses caring for our patients and neighbors.

According to the &LymphomaSociety, about every three minutes, someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with leukemia, lymphoma or myeloma – the most common types of blood cancer. Blood cancer is caused by DNA mutations within blood cells. In most cases, this is linked to factors beyond our control, like age, ethnicity and family history. This Blood Cancer Awareness Month, we’re answering common questions by sharing the facts shown here.

As a part of HCA Healthcare, we give our patients healthier tomorrows through access to a connected oncology network, including nine accredited blood cancer treatment programs. Through these programs, over 1,000 acute leukemia patients receive treatment each year. For some blood cancers, the only potential cure is a blood and marrow transplant. The HCA Healthcare Sarah Cannon Transplant and Cellular Therapy Network is the nation's leading provider of these transplants, conducting over 1,500 annually. Cellular therapy is another potential treatment for those with blood cancer, and our network is also leading the way in this novel treatment.

If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with blood cancer, we’re here to help. Find compassionate oncology care: https://bit.ly/3UWnOqE.

It's natural to worry about the health of your parents as they age. Afterall, aging increases their risk for several chronic diseases, including arthritis, cancer, dementia and Type 2 diabetes.

The best way to help them stay healthy is to encourage your parents to maintain their annual wellness visits, complete their physician recommended bloodwork and stay on top of their annual screenings. These screenings could include:

- Blood pressure test
- Cervical cancer screening
- Colonoscopy
- Lung cancer screening
- Skin cancer screening
- Mammogram
- Prostate exam
- Pulse oximetry test

Have questions about these screenings or looking to support your parent in finding a new primary care physician, but not sure where to start? Call HCA Florida Healthcare's Consult-A-Nurse® line at 844-70-NURSE (844-706-8773) and speak with a licensed nurse for free 24/7.

After a speargun accident, AJ’s life changed in an instant. He was rushed to HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital, where our expert trauma and surgical teams not only cared for his injuries but also focused on his future—his dream of getting back to the baseball diamond.

His mom, Lourdes, shared:

“Dr. Paschal was incredible. Everything was explained to us so clearly. We realized he was in good hands. Everybody was just so wonderful. They weren’t just treating him—they were preparing him to play baseball again. The first time I saw him throw a ball again, it was miraculous.”

Today, AJ is back on the mound, a reminder that at HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital, you’re never just a patient. You’re family and your goals become ours.

When Sofia Otero first walked into HCA Florida Capital Hospital as a college volunteer, she never imagined she’d soon be making such a powerful impact on patients’ lives. Inspired by the care her own family received, she felt called to give back.

Now, as a patient care technician in the orthopedic and medical surgical units, Sofia brings energy, compassion and a smile that makes patients feel like family.

“Knowing my work directly affects my patients in a positive way confirms this is my calling,” Sofia says. “I love my hospital because I love my people. The advocacy I see from our nurses and techs inspires me every day.”

Albert Gonzalez, director of the orthopedic and medical-surgical units, said Otero’s presence is already making a difference: “Sofia’s energy, attitude and smile make our patients feel like family. Even as a new team member, she’s making a real difference.”

To all of our HCA Florida Healthcare colleagues, like Sofia, and to the more than 93,000 nurses across our larger HCA Healthcare network, thank you for showing up in ways that make our patients feel seen and cared for. Your dedication helps drive nursing forward at HCA Healthcare and beyond.

School may be underway, but there’s still time for one last camping adventure. Keep your family safe with these smart camping tips for kids:

1. Buddy up. Even bathroom breaks need a partner.
2. Set boundaries. Mark clear campsite limits so kids know where it’s safe to explore.
3. Look, don’t eat. Teach kids not to snack on berries, mushrooms or other wild plants.
4. Steer clear of rash-causing plants. Learn to spot poison ivy, oak and sumac. Wear long pants and closed-toe shoes and wash hands often.
5. Shoes on, always. Protect little feet from thorns, rocks and other sharp objects.
6. Tools aren’t toys. Keep kids away from axes, knives and other dangerous gear.
https://bit.ly/3Jmyufu petting wildlife. Even friendly-looking animals can carry disease or bite.
8. Review fire safety. Go over rules before the marshmallows roast — supervised fun is safest.
