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 />
