We're expanding our School Based Health services!

Our team is now providing care at Waikoloa Elementary & Middle School. With the support of Hawai'i County, we are able to expand School Based Health services with the use of our new Mobile Health Units (MHU), which are essentially a clinic on wheels! These MHU's make accessing essential medical, behavioral and preventative health services so much easier for students and families across the island.

Mahalo for making our new MHU possible!

“We’re not managing a chronic illness. We’re eliminating it.” — Dr. Melissa Bumgardner, Hawai‘i Island Community Health Center

Hawaii Island Community Health Center has more than doubled the national Hepatitis C cure rate — reaching 71% — by putting patients first, knocking down barriers, and delivering care to the doorstep.

It’s a powerful reminder that Community Health Centers are not just providers, they are an essential, proven model for primary care and chronic disease treatment in the communities that need it most.
