Health Assessment Information for Refugees, Parolees and Entrants* Back to Top

New arrivals are given the opportunity to receive a health assessment as part of the resettlement process within the first 90 days of entrance in the United States. This health assessment is different and more complete than the one received before entering the country. The health assessment will help ensure that you are free of health problems, which could affect your family and your new community in Florida.

Please visit the Miami-Dade County Health Department's Refugee Health Assessment Clinic for your free consultation and check-up.

The Refugee Health Assessment Clinic is located at:
2742 S.W. 8th Street, Suite 15, Miami, Florida
Telephone: (305) 643-7300

Clinic hours are: 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. You can call (305) 643-7300 for an appointment.

Please bring any medical records you may have, x-rays, vaccination card, passport and I-94 card to the health assessment.

The Refugee Health Assessment Program will also provide you with health related information and with any referrals you may need. Do not be afraid to ask questions. You should understand what services are provided and what other treatment might be required. The intent of this health assessment is to prevent health problems before they occur.
