Sarasota Memorial Healthcare System President and CEO David Verinder joins José Díaz-Balart to share more about the recovery efforts after Hurricane Milton barreled through Florida and how the hospital opened its door to house families and pets of their staff members.

The National Hurricane Center says Milton made landfall near Siesta Key, with Sarasota-Bradenton region feeling strong effects.

Hurricane Milton made landfall on Siesta Key just before 8:30 pm Wednesday evening as the Category 3 storm continued lashing the Gulf Coast with heavy rains, whipping winds while spinning off a string of tornadoes across much of the peninsula.
