In 2006 they established the Trina Hidalgo Heart Care Center to serve their most vulnerable and isolated residents. These are heart patients who are uninsured and many living at poverty levels. This Center is Central Florida’s only cardiac center that provides free evidence-based medical management, education, and support to reduce risks and improve health and quality of life.
