February 8, 2023 – Holy Cross Health will host an open house and ribbon cutting with a blessing and dedication to celebrate the opening of the new Holy Cross Health Center at Sistrunk, 1409 N.W. Sistrunk Blvd. Suite 103 in Fort Lauderdale, at 4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 1. The public is invited to attend.
In the new Holy Cross Health Center at Sistrunk, the community will have access to family medicine, pediatric and adult immunizations, school physicals, annual wellness visits, primary prevention, care coordination, care management, health promotion and disease prevention through population-based interventions. The team will be available to answer questions and provide tours.
“It is so important that as healthcare professionals we take action to address social determinants and health inequities in our communities of greatest need, and we will do just that in our new center,” said Holy Cross Health President and CEO Mark Doyle. “We are bringing a much needed healthcare presence to local residents as we continue to be a person-centered, transforming, healing presence in our communities.”
The Holy Cross Center at Sistrunk is located as part of the site that was occupied from 1938 to 1964 by Provident Hospital, at that time the only hospital in Broward County that offered medical care to residents in that community. This center is dedicated in the spirit of the Sisters of Mercy, longtime sponsors of Holy Cross Health, and will further Holy Cross Health’s commitment to serving the poor and other communities in the greatest need.
“Access to the highest quality healthcare services will allow our communities to grow and thrive,” said Kim Saiswick, Vice President of Community Health and Well-being at Holy Cross Health. “We look forward to becoming the healthcare partner to the community here.”
