H.O.P.E Team

The team includes two outreach specialists, a veterans outreach specialist and a Registered Nurse -
Primary and Preventive Medical Care
Primary medical care is provided by a team of physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, registered nurses, medical assistants, and student interns. Our goal is to create a "medical home" for our patients in an effort to prevent the inappropriate use of hospital emergency rooms -

Our Mission
"to provide quality health care services

community."
Welcome to Health Care Center for the Homeless
The Health Care Center for the Homeless (HCCH) is a 501(c)(3) non-
profit organization committed to providing the health care needs of the
homeless and uninsured residents of our community in an atmosphere of
dignity and respect. Founded in 1993 by Dr. Rick Baxley, we began as an
evening medical clinic at a local homeless shelter in Orlando, Florida.
Over the years, we have grown to address multiple areas in health care,
centralized within our own clinic building, the Orange Blossom Family
Health Center. Our Health Center is located just a few blocks west of
downtown Orlando and we currently serve the homeless population of
Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties with the goal of returning our
patients to lives of self-sufficiency. We also serve the housed but
uninsured or underinsured residents of Orange County in an effort to
prevent the financial devastation that can result from catastrophic health
care costs. Our programs include primary medical care, oral health
services, behavioral health and substance abuse counseling, an on-site
pharmacy, vision services, a residential TB shelter, mobile health
services, and an aggressive street outreach program - the HOPE Team.
