Jacksonville, Florida

Links to Northeast Florida area hospitals and medical nonprofit organizations
 

Northeast Florida has a network of organizations which provide healthcare services to Jacksonville's medically underserved.  These groups depend on the committed volunteer support of physicians and other healthcare professionals to meet the needs of the uninsured, working poor, and homeless in our community.  Here is a thumbnail sketch of these organizations, their eligibility requirements, and contact information.
 

I.M. Sulzbacher Center Medical & Dental Clinic

The I.M. Sulzbacher Center medical services are designed as part of a community wide "Safety Net" of health care. As part of this system for over ten years the Center has evolved into a Federally Qualified Health Care Facility - one of two in the local system. The Center's dental clinic is the only functional adult indigent dental service in the area.  The medical clinic is a primary care provider with enhanced specialty services available through its community partnerships.  It serves the homeless through the I.M. Sulzbacher Center.  Click here for more details.
 

Volunteers in Medicine - Jacksonville

The Volunteers in Medicine Jax (VIM-Jax) Clinic is a volunteer run medical clinic improving the health of the Greater Jacksonville community by providing free outpatient medical services to the working uninsured. The VIM-Jax Clinic serves the needs of patients that come to receive medical care as well as the needs of volunteers who require a well-organized, safe, and rewarding environment in which to volunteer.   Physician, nurse and non-medical volunteers provide routine non-emergency medical services to our working uninsured who have no medical insurance and no place to go for routine medical care.

We Care Jacksonville

The WE CARE Jacksonville network is a non-profit organization which began as a grass roots coalition of physicians, nurses, dentist, hospitals, public health facilities, other allied health professionals, clerical personnel, and local church groups. Together they bring desperately needed primary and specialty care to those who need it most - the non-insured, the homeless, and medically underserved people of Jacksonville.  The WE CARE program provides free medical treatment (and when necessary, hospitalization) to Duval County persons in need of these services. If a patient requires medical evaluation/treatment beyond the scope of what the clinic can provide, a referral is made to an appropriate WE CARE participating specialist.
