Healthcare Network of Southwest Florida

1454 Madison Avenue West, Immokalee, FL 34142 (239) 658-3000 | healthcareswfl.org MISSION: To provide quality healthcare accessible to everyone in our community.

Since our founding in Immokalee in 1977, Healthcare Network has distinguished itself by providing primary care to men, women and children of all ages, helping the disenfranchised, underinsured and uninsured of our communities, as well as those with insurance and resources who recognize the quality and comprehensiveness of care available.

Our services include family care, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, senior care, and pharmacy as well as dental care, integrated behavioral health and community outreach. But we are no ordinary medical clinic. We are problem-solvers who reach beyond the exam room to connect patients to resources like food and housing that are essential for a person’s complete wellbeing. As a patient-centered medical and dental home, Healthcare Network providers work together as a team, aligned on treating the whole person—physical, mental and emotional health.

GOALS

Build a community where every person has access to quality healthcare.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS/ OPPORTUNITIES

For 45 years, Healthcare Network’s private, not-forprofit model has proven effective at meeting Southwest Florida’s needs. Naturally, philanthropic support is vital to ensuring we continue to achieve our vision of a community where every person has access to affordable quality healthcare.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

We are looking for caring and dedicated volunteers to help us make an impact in our primary care practices and out in the community. As a volunteer you can support the healthcare needs of our community, break barriers to care for underserved children, adults and seniors, and ensure people have access to affordable healthcare.

POST PANDEMIC

Healthcare Network expanded the size and work of the COVID-19 Response Team into the Healthcare Network Community Outreach Team to bring health and social services directly to underserved families through door-to-door canvassing and health fairs. Other additions include a new maternal-fetal medicine program for complicated pregnancies, Chronic Care Management, the Psychology Center for Health and Wellness and expanded pediatric services, including Pediatric Convenient Care.
