Advisories

Who:

Ozzie Drago, associate nurse manager, UHealth Jackson Urgent Care; other urgent care representatives; and members of the community

What:

Jackson Health System’s UHealth Jackson Urgent Care Center in North Dade will host a socially-distant, family-friendly, back-to-school giveaway this Saturday, August 8.

The Back-to-School Drive-Through invites pre-registered parents to drive along a designated route at the UHealth Jackson Urgent Care North Dade parking lot and receive back-to-school kits for children ages 5 to 13. Jackson staff will have no contact with the car passengers, while placing the kits in the trunk of each
car so parents so not have to exit their vehicle.

Approximately 1,000 backpacks, donated by COX media, will be available for distribution to those who have pre-registered for the event.

Jackson Health System annually hosts back-to-school events to support the children in our community.

Our network of five UHealth Jackson Urgent Care centers are open daily, offering treatment to adults and children with urgent – not emergent – medical needs. For more information, visit JacksonUrgentCare.com.

10 a.m. to Noon, Saturday, August 8, 2020

Where:

UHealth Jackson Urgent Care – North Dade
16555 N.W. 25th Avenue
