Nurses Bring Hope After Hurricane Melissa
Description
After Hurricane Melissa hit Jamaica, the Jamaica Nurses’ Association of Florida launched a massive two-day medical mission in Westmoreland, delivering free screenings, meds, and supplies to nearly 1,000 residents — including students getting back-to-school kits, dental care, and medical clearances. With doctors, nurses, and dental students from across the U.S., the team even brought a cardiologist and EKG machines. Backed by partners like the Rachel Dixon Memorial Fund — which sponsors Jamaican students and plans another outreach — this 20-year tradition of care proves how community collaboration can rebuild lives, heal bodies, and invest in futures right after disaster strikes.
