Here are a few thoughts for all of you this coming weekend:
All of us at Ko’olauloa Health Center believe that health care should be a right, not a privilege. That is why we do everything in our power to ensure that all families in our community have access to the quality, affordable health care they deserve, and the peace of mind it brings.

Aloha ‘Ohana,
Did you know that rates of asthma among Ko’olauloa’s keiki are 50% higher than the state average?
Asthma Awareness is critical, so let’s keep in mind that asthma sufferers are especially sensitive to changes in air quality and climate.
KHC can help you regain control of your asthma. If you or a family member is suffering from asthma (or any other health concern), call us at 293-9231. We are always accepting new patients regardless of insurance or ability to pay.
Mahalo!

Aloha ‘Ohana,
Did you know that the American Dental Association says that every child should visit a dentist by age 1?
The sooner children begin getting regular dental checkups, the healthier their mouths will stay throughout their lives. Early checkups help prevent cavities and tooth decay, which can lead to pain, trouble concentrating, and other medical issues. Youngsters with healthy teeth chew food easily, learn to speak clearly, and smile with confidence.
The American Dental Association says that every child should visit a dentist by age 1 – or as soon as the first tooth appears. This “well-baby visit” teaches parents and caregivers how to care for their children’s teeth and help them remain cavity-free.
