Your Donation Dollars at Work!

Thanks to generous donor support, Surgical Services now has a new Trios OR Table — a long-requested upgrade from our medical staff, orthopedic, and general surgeons.

This advanced operating table makes imaging during surgery easier and allows surgeons to perform more complex procedures, including certain pelvic fractures, with the potential to expand surgical services in the future. This upgrade helps bring more advanced care closer to home for our patients.

Mahalo for supporting the growth of surgical care in our community!

Your Donation Dollars at Work!

Thanks to generous donor support, the Emergency Department received a new Trauma Cart at the beginning of 2025.

This cart keeps critical, life-saving tools in one place so surgeons and emergency physicians can access them quickly during serious emergencies. Having these supplies organized and ready helps the care team respond faster when every second counts.

Mahalo for helping support lifesaving care in our Emergency Department!

Your Donation Dollars at Work!

Thanks to generous donor support, Surgical Services now has another Neptune Suction Rover to add to their fleet!

This mobile system safely collects and removes fluids during surgery, helping keep the operating room clean and organized. By reducing spills and improving efficiency, the Neptune Suction Rover supports a safer environment for patients and allows surgical teams to focus on providing the best possible care.

Mahalo for helping support safe, high-quality surgical care!
