A Maui health provider team that mobilized during the 2023 wildfires earns national G.R.I.T. award
In August 2023, as families and students were scattered across the island, Hawaiʻi Keiki’s Maui provider team mobilized to ensure access to care for Hawaiʻi Department of Education (HIDOE) students, assisting in shelters, providing virtual telehealth visits, managing health hotlines, and supporting the community through various efforts including partnering with Federally Qualified Health Centers for medical care, conducting health assessments, refilling prescriptions, and facilitating access to vaccinations in affected areas.
