Scope and Contents: The Dr. Barbara Montford Collection is comprised of 12 issues of the Miami Medicine: The Official Publication of the Dade County Medical Association. These issues record her year as president of the organization from July 2018 to June 2019.
Dr. Montford during her year as president set out three major goals. She set out to work with the North Miami Police Dept. to work on officer response to mentally challenged patients. She also worked and supported the Trayvon Martin Foundation in their activities. Dr. Montford also set out to create a "Medical Staff Manual" as a way to help protect the rights of practicing physicians. The last goal was to increase membership and work out how to get physicians enrolled within multiple organizations.
