Kohala Hospital, located in the rural town of Kapaau (North Kohala), opened its doors to patients on April 1, 1917. At that time, it was a 14-bed facility. Miss Mina Robinson, a medical, surgical and maternity nurse, arrived from Australia to "take charge" of the hospital. The cost of hospitalization at that time was $1.50 per day. In 1962, Kohala Hospital was relocated into a new lava rock and hollow tile structure consisting of 26 inpatient beds providing both long-term and short-term acute care. Today, Kohala Hospital employs 43 employees and provides the following services: Critical Access Hospital (CAH) including 24-Hour Emergency Care, Inpatient and Outpatient Clinical Laboratory and X-Ray Services, Medical Acute and Skilled Nursing Inpatient Care, and Long-Term Care (Skilled Nursing and Intermediate Care).
