April Intentions

Aloha ‘Ohana!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Here are some April intentions for the month ahead. Let’s focus on self-care and scheduling time for ourselves, enjoying the warmer weather and spending time outdoors, letting go of heavy things, and inviting new beginnings. Our entire staff wishes you all a positive month ahead.

Cheers!

Mahalo, Hawaii, for protecting our ‘ohana!

According to the CDC, Hawaii has the 6th highest vaccination percentage and the 2nd lowest death rate nationwide.

With thoughtful masking, vaccinations, and boosters, Hawaii's keiki and kupuna are staying healthy and safe. Let's keep it up! Certain vulnerable populations are eligible for a second booster. Visit HawaiiCOVID19.com for more information and vaccine locations.

Rights vs Privilages

Aloha 'Ohana...

Here are a few thoughts for all of you this Thursday:

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.

Doctors' Day

Aloha ‘Ohana!

Did you know that today is National Doctors Day (better known as Doctors Appreciation Day)? Doctors’ Day, is an annual observance aimed at appreciating physicians who help save our lives everywhere. The holiday first started in 1933 in Winder, Georgia, and since then it’s been honored every year on March 30 which was the first anniversary of a doctor using ether anesthesia by Dr. Crawford W. Long. 

Today we thank all doctors everywhere who’ve spent so much time and energy mastering their field of expertise.
