Community Outreach

The availability of daily urgent care on the North Shore has created a groundswell of community support for Makana North Shore Urgent Care.
education
Education Outreach

We look to provide a number of community outreach services in addition to urgent medical care. Many of our physicians are faculty members of the University of Utah School of Medicine and instructors for the university residency in emergency medicine, surgery, and the critical care fellowship program. Their breadth of expertise includes disaster management, paramedical and aeromedical services, critical care, resuscitation, and clinical medical education. We plan to leverage this varied expertise in multiple community outreach opportunities.

career
Career Development Outreach

The Makana physicians plan to work with North Shore schools to promote awareness and interest in healthcare careers. We plan to give presentations in the schools where interested students will be invited to shadow physicians, advanced practice clinicians, and nurses in the Makana North Shore Urgent Care clinic. We hope to start a student interest group in healthcare careers and raise funds for scholarship support of these future doctors and nurses. If your school or youth group is interested in a presentation, contact us at info@makanacare.org.

Disaster Assistance

The North Shore of Kauai is at regular risk for severe weather in the form of hurricanes, flooding, and tsunamis. We plan on volunteering our physician expertise in disaster management to the existing team of dedicated people who are already planning for major North Shore emergencies. In addition, we hope to create a well-stocked disaster staging area near the Makana North Shore Urgent Care where our staff can actively participate in serving the community in the event of a disaster.
