is the leading cause of cancer-related death according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Many people don’t know the hidden risks they may be exposed to every day. Common lifestyle risk factors include:

🚬Smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke
💨Exposure to radon, a colorless and odorless radioactive gas that occurs naturally in soil
🦠Inhaling hazardous chemicals like asbestos, uranium and other toxic products
🏭Exposure to particle pollution, such as inhaling tiny particles from exhaust smoke
🎗️Prior radiation to treat other cancers

In addition to lifestyle risk factors, a family history of lung cancer may also increase your risk. Fortunately, lung cancer is most treatable when it’s caught early. Across our larger HCA Healthcare system of care, Sarah Cannon Cancer Network treats over 12,000 cases each year, bringing deep experience and compassionate care to every patient.

HCA Florida JFK Hospital is proud to be an American College of Surgeons Accredited Cancer Program. If you think you may have an increased risk for lung cancer based on these risk factors, talk with your doctor or schedule an appointment with one of our experts: https://bit.ly/4p6NRrU

Walking Together for Healthier Hearts ❤️

Over the weekend, our HCA Florida Healthcare family proudly joined the American Heart Association's Palm Beach County Heart Walk — alongside our sister facilities HCA Florida JFK North Hospital, HCA Florida Palms West Hospital, HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital, and HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital.

Together, we raised over $90,000, helping the event surpass $1 million in total funds raised for cardiovascular research, heart health education, and community programs that save and improve lives.

We’re incredibly proud that our CEO Ken West served as this year’s Heart Walk Chair — and that HCA Florida JFK Hospital earned first place in the Hospital Heartbeat Battle, winning the Hospital Industry Challenge for most funds raised!

The American Heart Association’s mission is near and dear to our hearts. As Palm Beach County’s most comprehensive cardiovascular hospital, we’ve been healing hearts for nearly 40 years — and we’re committed to continuing that legacy.

A heartfelt thank-you to all our colleagues, families, and friends who walked, donated, and cheered us on. Together, we’re building a future of longer, healthier, heart-strong lives.

This morning, our HCA Florida JFK Hospital family came together to honor the brave men and women who have served our nation during our annual Veterans Day Ceremony.

From Bishop Howard Riley’s heartfelt invocation to the moving Present Arms led by Frederick Moya, CPO U.S. Navy (Ret.), and SM Sgt. James Robbins with the Lake Worth High School ROTC, every moment reflected pride and gratitude.

Deputy Sheriff Anthony Dukes delivered a stirring National Anthem, and Deputy Sheriff Sean Lutz closed the ceremony with the solemn sound of Military Taps — a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made in service to our country.

At HCA Healthcare, we’re proud to stand with those who serve. For 15 consecutive years, HCA Healthcare has been recognized as a Military Friendly® Employer by VIQTORY — a testament to our ongoing commitment to veterans and their families.

Today and every day, we thank our nation’s heroes for their courage, service, and sacrifice.

As we prepare to observe Veterans Day, we’re proud to share an inspiring story from our HCA Florida JFK Hospital family.

Teneka, one of our dedicated occupational therapists, recently served as a Guardian with Southeast Florida Honor Flight — accompanying Joe, a Vietnam veteran, on a journey to Washington, D.C. Together, they visited war memorials and Arlington National Cemetery, witnessing the Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Teneka calls the experience “one of the most memorable, heartwarming, and inspiring” of her life — a reminder of the courage and sacrifice of those who served.

This Veterans Day, we honor all who have defended our freedom and thank colleagues like Teneka for embodying compassion and pride in everything they do.

November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month

Did you know a CT scan provides a more detailed image of the lungs than a standard chest X-ray, helping doctors detect tumors in their earliest and most treatable stages. Lung cancer survival rates are five times higher when detected early, yet nearly 70% of cases are diagnosed in stage 3 or 4.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. — but early screening can make all the difference. To make screening more accessible, HCA Florida JFK Hospital is offering special evening hours on Tuesday, November 12, from 4pm to 7pm.
