In addition, Florida Hospital Centra Care hosted a free CPR and water-safety instruction session to help families learn how to help protect little ones this summer.

Florida Hospital Centra Cares are designed to offer easy access, extended hours, and great quality care close to home, Rob Deininger, Florida Hospital Fish Memorial CEO, said during the event.
