Description:

The FIU Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine has created a novel program, the Green Family Foundation NeighborhoodHELP to help community members of the North Dade area, find and better understand health and social services in their communities. Our program is offered exclusively to residents who are referred to us by our Community Partner organizations, such as Jewish Community Services.

When you sign up for our program, we will send to your home students and their professor (who are Community Doctors or Licensed Nurses and Licensed Social Workers) from the fields of medicine, nursing, social work and law to help you achieve your health goals. They address social and economic issues that may contribute to poor health. For example, immigration status, custodial rights, unemployment and housing issues are problems that can make achieving optimal health impossible. The Community Doctor provides care in the home or at a designated health care center to any household member who is uninsured or may not have a primary care physician. We also have a team of outreach workers who will help you get maximum benefit from the program and community services. Through our GFF NHELP program, we can:

* HELP you set health goals
* HELP you obtain easy primary health care at our mobile health center
* HELP you schedule follow-up visits with our FIU Doctors at local healthcare centers.
* HELP you find other community services you may need
* HELP you obtain legal assistance, counseling and other services
