Patient Appreciation Day - NHCW
Aloha ‘Ohana,
It’s Wednesday, 8/5 – Patient Appreciation Day!
For the first time in history, Community Health Centers like Ko’olauloa Health Center served more than 30 million patients in 2021. A legacy of more than 60 years in the making, the Community Health Center movement began as a journey of building power among people within their unique communities. Today, Community Health Centers represent the largest network of primary care providers in America. Community Health Centers serve 1 in 11 people in the U.S. including:
1 in 9 children and adolescents
1 in 7 racial and ethnic minorities
1 in 6 Medicaid beneficiaries
1 in 5 uninsured persons
1 in 3 people in poverty
Today we celebrate the patients and community board members who keep Community Health Centers accountable for meeting the needs of local communities. We are deeply appreciative of all your trust and support. Mahalo!
