District Page: Featuring Kauaʻi County<br />

Aileen Siliado is a volunteer<br />

leader in the Kauaʻi District,<br />

looking for participation from<br />

all nurses in the county. Watch<br />

for emails from her regarding<br />

Hawaiʻi-ANA activities in the<br />

Kauaʻi community.<br />

Aloha Kauaʻi <strong>Nurse</strong>s!<br />

I would like to extend my<br />

appreciation for all that you do<br />

Aileen Siliado<br />

for our community! You have<br />

dedicated your lives to providing excellent care and<br />

creating a safe, therapeutic environment for our patients<br />

that truly make a difference in the lives of other nurses,<br />

patients, and their families.<br />

Hawaiʻi-ANA would like to engage nurses in “geographic<br />

districts” to work together on community focused outreach<br />

that shows our hoalauna, “Who we are.” We want to<br />

extend a virtual invitation to help us develop a plan on how<br />

we can show up in our communities because that is what<br />

we do. The people on our islands need to know that we<br />

are here, using evidence-based science to care for people<br />

throughout their lives. We have so much to offer! Please<br />

send us an email so we can start that connection with you.<br />

All nurses from students through retirees are welcome to<br />

join in our outreach activities.<br />

Mahalo, Aileen<br />
