The heart of local healthcare is truly knowing your community, so you can provide the care your friends and neighbors need—when, where, and how they need it.

Adventist Health proudly serves communities across California, Oregon, and Hawai‘i. In Hawai‘i, our roots in the Windward O‘ahu community go back to 1963, when Adventist Health Castle was founded in Kailua.

During Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we honor the values of Hawaiian culture that continue to teach us about health, wholeness and caring for one another.
