No-Shave November

Aloha all Kane ‘Ohana!

Its No-Shave November

Did you know that the Top 3 cancers for men are Lung, Prostate, and Colon? Early detection is key to thriving and surviving:

First colon cancer screens should be at age 45. Are you overdue?

- Screen options include stool tests, colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, and CT colonography.

- Blood test for prostate cancer antigens starting at age 55 or if you have symptoms

- Talk to your doctor about frequent urination, weak interrupted flow, discomfort urinating, and blood in your urine.

- Share a family history of cancer with your doctor.

Koolauloa Health Center is always accepting new patients (with and without insurance).

Call 293-9231 for an appointment.

Hope to see you soon! Mahalo.

Nurse Practitioner Week

Aloha ‘Ohana!

This week is Nurse Practitioner Week across the nation. Nurse Practitioner Week takes place annually in the second week of November to recognize these incredible healthcare providers and raise awareness of the powerful role they play in ensuring general health and well-being. Can you believe that the nurse practitioner profession has been in existence for 56 years now? Nurse practitioners are highly educated and trained medical professionals who are almost like doctors. In addition to their fundamental roles as registered nurses, they can provide primary care, counseling, diagnosis, offer health education, and write prescriptions.

Mahalo to all of the highly skilled Nurse Practitioners out there. We appreciate all that you do!

Passion + Purpose

Aloha ‘Ohana - here’s some food for thought…

Why are passion and purpose BOTH essential to reaching your goals?

Purpose: helps you determine a course of action. Passion: is what drives you.

Purpose sets direction while passion keeps you going when you hit the “dip”. You will need to draw upon your passion to stay committed, not give up, not get distracted, and climb the hill toward your goal.

Passion without purpose is going nowhere fast. “Passion without purpose is like a shot without a target.” - Ifeanyi Enoch.

Purpose steers and passion propels.

Here at Ko’olauloa, our purpose is to do everything in our power to ensure that all families in our community have access to the quality, affordable health care they deserve. Our passion is to continue to do this every day, even in the face of difficult circumstances, like the times we all currently face.

Mahalo to all of our staff and our community for sharing the same purpose and passion.

Meet Dr. Cecilia!

Aloha ‘Ohana!

Dr. Serrato's goal is caring for both pediatric and adult patients and preventing unnecessary dental pain.

Call 293-9231 to schedule a cleaning and get to know her.
