Care Resource Connects Miami Residents to Vital Health Services at U4C
Care Resource Community Health Centers. Inc. proudly hosted its annual United 4 Care (U4C) Health Fair at José Martí Park, creating a vibrant space for health, wellness, and community connection. The free event drew hundreds of residents for a day focused on “Your Health. Your Community. Your Day.”
From 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, attendees accessed free health screenings - including blood pressure, blood sugar, HIV testing, flu shots, diabetes checks, and cancer screenings - alongside expert guidance on insurance, prevention, and local health resources.
Highlights included:
- The Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center’s Game Changer Mobile Unit, offering free screenings for colorectal, prostate, cervical, liver, and lung cancer, plus wellness checks like BMI, cholesterol, and glucose.
- Diabetes risk assessments, empowering individuals to prevent complications and take control of their health.
- Alzheimer’s Association Brain Bus, providing education on early detection, risk reduction, and caregiving resources.
- Free flu shots from Care Resource’s pharmacy team — no appointment needed.
- Affordable Care Act enrollment assistance, helping participants secure coverage for 2026.
- Beyond medical care, U4C celebrated community spirit with live music, giveaways, boxed lunches, and family-friendly activities, reinforcing Care Resource’s mission to make prevention easy, accessible, and close to home.
“U4C is more than a campaign — it’s a movement,” said Karin Sabey, CEO of Care Resource. “We’re expanding our impact by addressing the real-life challenges our patients and neighbors face every day.”
The event was made possible thanks to sponsors including ViiV Healthcare, City of Miami, Florida Blue, Gilead, ¡Pa’lante! Miami, OraSure Technologies, Thera Technologies, Alzheimer’s Association, and Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.
