We’re Proud to Be Your Medical Home
We’re here to help you reach your health and wellness goals, and we know that takes more than appointments and referrals alone. At Hawai‘i Island Community Health Center, we use a nationally recognized model of care called the “Patient Centered Medical Home,” or “PCMH.” As a PCMH, our goal is to provide care that treats you as whole person, with an integrated team approach that delivers the care you need, when you need it. We know that each patient has unique needs —and at HICHC, you’ll have a team of caring professionals working to meet your needs and help you reach your health and wellness goals.
Your Care Team
As the patient, you are at the center of this model of care; and you have a whole team on your side ready to help with a care plan that meets your needs. This team varies depending on your needs, but will include your medical provider plus support staff like nurses, medical assistants, patient navigators, behavioral health providers, or even your dentist. This team is here to support you through all of our services: Primary Care, Women’s Health, Behavioral Health, Pediatrics, Dental Care, Substance Use Treatment, Pharmacy, WIC services, and more.
