Mission Statement
Through education, prevention, research, care & treatment, and support service, Care Resource improves upon the health and overall quality of life of our diverse South Florida communities in need.
Description
For over 27 years, Care Resource has provided HIV/AIDS research, prevention, care and treatment services to individuals in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties and has become South Florida’s oldest and largest HIV/AIDS service organization. Persons living with HIV/AIDS have had access at a "one-stop" location to primary medical care, oral health care, clinical trials and research studies, information and referrals, medical case management, mental health and substance abuse counseling, temporary assistance to needy families (TANF), emergency rent/mortgage and utility assistance, food and transportation vouchers, food bank groceries and counseling and testing.
Recognizing the need for quality medical care for our clients’ partners and families, as well as others in the community, the Board of Directors of Care Resource made the decision to expand services beyond a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS to provide primary medical services to encompass children, youth, families and seniors with a focus on our lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender (LGBT) community. The Care Resource facility in Ft. Lauderdale has been awarded the designation of a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and both facilities are now providing comprehensive health and support services to address the full health care needs of our pediatric, adolescent and adult populations. Services include well child services, gynecological care, general adult primary care, oral health, HIV primary care, research, diagnostic laboratory and X-ray, screenings, immunizations, voluntary family planning and referrals to obstetrical and other specialty care services. Support services include case management, mental health and substance abuse counseling, HIV testing, outreach, nutrition and referrals to WIC. As a leader in providing HIV/AIDS disease management control for over 27 years, Care Resource is uniquely positioned to assist our patients in long-term disease management.
