SERVICES
Hurricane Debby struck Florida in August of 2024 bringing widespread flooding, rainfall exceeding 20 inches in northern and central Florida, strong winds, tornadoes, and significant coastal erosion. In response to the storm’s devastating impacts, CDR Health partnered with the State of Florida to provide critical medical support. Deployable medical mobile units were sent to Madison County Memorial Hospital to assist with ER overflow, alleviating clinical pressure and ensuring timely care for affected patients. Shortly thereafter, in the wake of a sewage backup caused by a treatment plant failure in Sarasota County, which contaminated local water sources, CDR Health deployed another mobile medical unit to treat the impacted residents. These efforts exemplified CDR Health’s ability to deliver rapid, life-saving medical interventions during times of crisis.
