Larkin Community Hospital

Larkin Community Hospital is the acute-care arm of Larkin Health System, an integrated healthcare delivery system and statutory teaching hospital serving South Miami, Hialeah and Hollywood, Florida. Its South Miami Campus operates as a 146-bed acute care hospital, and home health agencies extend the system's reach across Miami-Dade and Broward counties. The organisation has served the community for more than 40 years.

Teaching sits at the centre of the operation. Larkin is one of twelve statutory teaching hospitals in Florida and the sixth-largest of them, running graduate medical education programmes, medical clerkships and a School of Nursing. Clinical staff work within what the system describes as an educational environment, alongside trainees and students, with a stated investment in training the next generation of health professionals.

Services span inpatient and outpatient care delivered through the three Florida locations, home health care, nursing and medical education, and health equity research. The hospital is Joint Commission accredited and reports commitment to ongoing research and quality improvement, adopting the Quintuple Aim of Care for Healthcare Improvement: enhancing the experience of care, improving the health of populations, reducing costs, caring for healthcare providers and advancing health equity.

Applicants should note the organisation's stated ethos: a community hospital approach emphasising convenience and compassionate care, described internally as a continuing tradition of caring with a personal touch, with a mission focused on access to care of the highest quality in an educational setting.
