From those beginnings Miami Jewish Home and Hospital as we came to be called grew along with the burgeoning Miami community Led for many years by Judge Irving Cypen the organization grew to include not only a nursing home but an oncampus Hospital an Assisted Living Facility Independent Living Facility and began exploring innovative PACE Channeling and other programs to deliver healthcare services in the community
