For a health care facility to be located in a somewhat remote and rural location there can be a number of challenges. But, Kahuku Medical Center (KMC) is excited to mark its fifth year as the Critical Access Hospital dedicated to serve the busy North Shore and Ko’olauloa community residents and tourists to provide excellent quality care.

KMC is situated on seven acres in Kahuku owned by Continental Pacific, LLC. KMC's lease, negotiated with Campbell Estate who first owned the property, runs until 2049. The lease is independent of land ownership. 

“Since becoming a non-profit affiliate of HHSC in 2008, KMC continues to play an integral part of health care delivery in the North Shore communities of Oahu,” said Avery Chumbley, HHSC Corporate Board Chair.  “The access patients have to personalized care is significant and we are proud to see the positive impact KMC has had, and will continue to have, on the community.”

HONOLULU, HI, – HUGS is pleased to announce the launch of its first Siblings Camp for siblings of seriously ill Hawaii children.  From June 1-3, 2012, the siblings will gather at the YMCA’s Camp Erdman on the North Shore of Oahu to enjoy a weekend full of recreational and social activities while connecting with their peers.

Activities will include nature hikes, arts and crafts, water fun, campfire, and sibling support sessions.  Thirty-two of HUGS siblings who range in age from 7-13 years will attend the camp and will be joined by more than a dozen volunteer camp counselors.  Camp dates were specifically chosen to coincide with the American Cancer Society’s Camp Anuenue where many of the brothers and sisters of siblings will be so that each group has its own dedicated camp and parents can enjoy respite time.
